A productive weekend on the old girl. On top of the other jobs mentioned before, today I did a bit of fettling on my coilovers. Happy with how she's sitting now. A few pics as the sun started dipping off.

Mulling over with the Mrs about getting a Campal. She's in, no need to convince her. The Elgrand's 'flat' seats are okay with pillows and a matress topper, but going forward I reckon a flat bed is needed, plus this and that to store stuff.

Wondered if you can fit the smaller (Tetford 345) porta potti in there somewhere.

They seem to have A* customer service in fairness.

My Campal was constructed so there was room for a portapotty between the two drawers. It's currently up for sale but you'll have to come and get it, you can use the money you'll save to pay for the holiday :p

Surely nobody buys a used PortaPotty.

Good morning all!
This is my first post here.
I got my Elgrand mid Feb and have just returned from its first real expedition - a week's round trip to Cornwall and back. I did 360 miles last Monday and again on Saturday - she drove like a dream - so smooth and comfortable and elegant. I love my Elgrand that I call 'Melsie'. Fuel consumption was better than I was expecting - about Ā£85 for the long trips. Looking forward to next trip!

I seem to have left a few steps out.
 
Changed engine oil, swapped wheels around went for a test drive and the main swivelling screen went blank and rebooted. Second time this has happened in 2.5 years. Donā€™t know if it is a ā€œthingā€ or a loose connection but was on a smooth road.

Did just the screen reboot or the system? Did screen go black then come back on, or did it go black then the Nissan logo appeared?
 
Went black then Nissan logo appears, then everything seems normal after that.
