The idea of this is to provide enough of a stopping force that somebody gives up and moves on. Thieves don't generally want to make noise so they won't generally kick a door in. But there's an even bigger and stronger version of this meant to protect school doors called the 'lockdown' - you can get it here: amzn.to/3zLWGmR

@@ManontheOutside thank you very much I subbed.

Back out next week, just back from vacation :)

Cool, glad you found it useful. It's a tricky mountain and easy to stray off course. Hop you find it on your second attempt!

It only comes in one size as far as I know. I have 2 of them now in case I ever lose one ory first one breaks and they are both the same size. I wonder if it's been updated and now there are multiple sizes. I will check,

I checked, they have added a large size. It looks like I have what is not the medium one, as mine is around 30cm wide.

Thanks, glad to be back out. Plan to be doing them regularly now, last year was a bit of a nightmare with work but I have a few free evenings again now 👍

It's basically a plywood box held together with screws and PVA, with a drawer and table added in. Redcote and Amdro make them too. How can you copyright it? By the same logic nobody could build a mobile phone because Apple already invented it, or nobody could make a house out of bricks.

Thanks! I fitted it myself, I worked out how to do it. If you have Facebook, there's a group called "Ford Grand Tourneo Connect Owners". If you join that and search on there for "boot switch", I posted the instructions on how to do it. Took me about a couple of hour, pretty straightforward, and the parts are very cheap.

@@ManontheOutside thanks for that, I will take a look

Thanks, appreciated!

No problem, thanks for feedback! Yeah the speechless ones feel a bit weird, I have another channel with some of them on but figured it made more sense to put them on the main channel. But I'll maybe do one or two and see what the response is. I found it very hard not to speak for a couple of hours, lol

Terrible bro but I got a pack of 50 to use now 😂👍

Drop them at ours lad,.I look forward to them in the morning after a camp 😂😂

I'm working away for a couple of weeks now so not for at least 2 weeks. Then I'm aiming for one per week minimum

Thanks! Great to get out again. Looking forward to doing them more regularly

😄We are reformed, but do enjoy a tipple! 😄

Thanks, it's great to be back out. I'm so sorry to hear about your wife - please accept our condolences. I hope you are doing OK. At least you managed to get a couple of trips away and I hope you have some great memories of those.

It's interesting, Alex isn't bothered by it at all but I can't stop checking what's going on outside. I think it stems from my childhood when we had some troubles with my Dad's car being vandalised a few times, it's left me a light sleeper! You do get used to it though, we camped again last night and I didn't even look out of the window. I guess the more you do it the less bothered you become 😄

Thanks Gary, appreciate that! I always get uncomfortable when somebody parks that close, I don't know why, I just like my space too much 😂 Just a few lads having a chill out in their motors, so all good👍

It is totally weird isn't it? I always make a point of parking far away from other cars so I never get why some people do the opposite. 😂

It's a great place, I need to visit more often!

😂Well thanks for watching all the way through 😄

@@ManontheOutside If you don’t like the country you know what to do

👋😂😂

Thanks, great to get out again. Another video coming this weekend if I can get it rendered!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 😀

That's a great idea, I have just ordered one. Will see if if makes any difference. Great tip!

I'm glad you were able to make use of the video/plans! Great little setup isn't it? 😀

@@ManontheOutside yeah I have obvs tweaked it and modified god knows how many times, the Ford is a bit longer than the berlingo. I always say I need a bigger camper but I manage more often than not maybe one day when Nova doesn’t go anymore. I have changed the table set up to a Laguna type table so much better the pan the island table leg in terms of of getting in and out as I use my tailgate more than side doors

That Laguna table looks great, just looked one up. Fantastic idea, a definite improvement on mine! I might consider picking one up, as you say the Fiamma leg can be a bit cramped.

@@ManontheOutside you can get a cheaper version just as good

@@novaadventures5758 sounds good, any recommendations on a particular brand?

Thanks, great to be back out again!

This weekend I think, working on it now

Lol, this made me laugh out loud 😂 When I park in work (there are something like 300 spaces and only about 10 percent ever used), I get annoyed when someone takes 'my' space at the back of the car park. Definitely a strange British thing, lol

We do travel a lot further out sometimes, but staying local is sometimes good for testing out the equipment for longer trips.

Thank you - glad it was helpful!

Thank you the following and I'm glad you're enjoying!

That sounds fantastic - have added that to my list. Thank you for the tip!

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Definitely get up there if you can!

Yeah I am out car camping this Friday, this video was just to kick the channel back in (and a free dashcam into the bargain too) 😀

Yeah I was surprised how run down the centre of Southport had become. Used to go there when I was younger. Probably give it a miss now!

Thanks for the sub! Banshee 300 also a great tent, my brother has one.

Thanks! Normally it is, and I've driven it a few times with the bed made. But I now use a portable toilet on the right hand side at the back, and it pushes the whole boot jump further into the car (because the toilet will not fit in otherwise). So I have to roll the driver's seat forward a few clicks. It's still driveable but a little bit tight. But without the toilet in, I can drive without adjusting the driver seat.

I would say no (but am not 100% sure). I know from experience that Coleman cannisters have weird fittings that don't seem to work on non Coleman stoves. I don't buy them for that reason.

I don't think any stove works that well in the wind tbh, even my Jetboil blows out in strong winds and that's got a super strong flame. So I also use a windshield with it (you can see this in some of my other videos - I use a 10-plate foldable shield that sticks in the ground). Works pretty well for me.

I've got the same way now, totally not bothered where I camp 😄

Built it over 3 weekends or so. Materials were about 500 in total (including cushions) but probably could have gone a bit cheaper (e.g. not using pocket hole screws and just using PVA), that kind of thing. Prob could have shaved £50-70 ish off. I looked at all of those vehicles - I liked the Tourneo as it had great MPG, more spacious than the Berlingo. I think the Elgrand was very heavy on fuel which was a factor. Only problem with the Tourneos is that they're quite hard to get hold of now.

@ManontheOutside Thanks for the info, looking to do a day van so just have half your setup so 2 can sit side by side, should be cheaper still. Loving the channel, getting lots of tip!

Thanks for the feedback, appreciated! Totally agree on the Vangos - for the price point, hard to beat
