| You know how we love to 'enhance' our beloved BraziBays? Let's get a snapshot of what ideally you would like to do next to your Kombi, regardless of cost. Who knows, the Fairy KombiMother may just grant you your wish ....  Any suggestions, let me know and I'll add them in.  ________________________________________________________________________________ Max SportsKombi - The Bay Racer

| Have voted for some things already added and some not.
Kiteman's dash-top display for engine temperature, rpm and mpg should be on the list too.

| Heating for me too.
Controls in the cab for letting outside air in or not doesn't quite cut it.
Actually in the process of fitting propex heatsource | |

| Actually, I've remembered what I'd like - some decent wing mirrors that are more adjustable as befits a tall bloke! Something like this: Trucker Mirrors

| So it's a month since we launched this poll. Let's take a look at the results ...  At the top of the list: 1. Bigger Engine 2. Coloured Poptop Canvas 3. Jointly: Change of Curtains/Upgrade Door Cards 5. Change in Poptop I'm surprised that 'A Bigger Engine' got more votes than say either a 5 speed gearbox or the option of a diesel engine, as both of those would give more flexibility. Maybe it's all about the POWER!!  A change to coloured canvas, new curtains and door cards are all very achievable, as is a change in poptop, albeit that would be the most expensive of these runner-up kustomisations. Interesting that things like 'Fit a Fake Front Spare Wheel' and 'Lowered Suspension' get zero votes, yet so many have done that. Climate Control gets zip votes too - yet if your daily drive didn't have it, you'd complain right?! Just open up those quarter light windows!!  ________________________________________________________________________________ Max SportsKombi - The Bay Racer

| I'm guessing that 'fake front wheel' and 'lowered suspension' didn't get any votes because in most cases the kustomising has already been done.
Diesel engine would be lovely. Just not in Paris in 5 years time ! | |
