Ok, not exactly a major mod, but as they say, you've got to start somewhere .....
OEM mudflaps fitted.

Hardly post on this topic but had a broken KW coil spring, both gone in fact, so replaced with uprated KW springs to accommodate the extra weight of the 3.6 lump and dsg gearbox, what a difference! And of course new strut top mounts and bearings! Was reminded how awkward it is to get at the 3 strut top bolts on the drivers sideImage ... especially with king kong size handsImageImageImageImageImageImage

Got a new windscreen fitted looks really weird with it out !
And fitted a whiteline 24mm anti roll bar, and put it on the most stiff setting!
But haven't really noticed a huge improvement to be honest, was expecting more by the reviews I heard about it , might be just due to the van being axle flipped and low and having ajustable dampers set to fairly stiff, or it's possible a drop link is Abit worn but not sure it was worth the 180 pounds o paid for it ImageImage

Drove to Wales last night to camp and check out Elan Valley today, what an amazing place.. and the road from there to Aberystwyth was like a racetrack! Van worked amazing as a camper just chucked a double airbed in no problem and a ton of blankets to keep warmImageImageImageImageImageImage
