Love your new van 💜
We do use the curtains in ours when it's very cold it keeps the warmth in really well.
Looking forward to watching your future adventures.
If we don't see you before we will see you in Spain at Christmas 😁💜xx
Thanks guys 🥰 , might try using the curtains, never thought about them for keeping heat in 👍 … you’ll see us before then guys , we’re hoping to get booked in once house has gone and head that way xx
Good video keep up good work I just saw you van in Scarborough today I was put my drone up at cayon bay
Hi David thanks 🙏. Yes we seen you on your bike with the drone on follow, hope you got some good footage 👍
We have a 665 of a similar age and have had her 5 years this year. We love her, she's called the Mac Shack! We have done similar things to ours led strip lights,diesel heater and my soft furnishings were all boring beigh so I made some new curtains for mine. We are full time too and I did think of getting rid of them but on a bitter night I put the blinds up and draw the curtains and it does help with the cold. The weakest link in the van re.cold is the cab and we intend to insulat ours for next year but on a freezing night I do internal blinds, cab curtains and the tuck a couple thick thermal curtains under the matress across the bulk head to keep the warm in and the cold out. Enjoy your travels 👋👋👋
Thanks for this that’s great to know 😊
The curtains will add a little thermal insulation in the very cold winter months great video
We have actually sold this van now, thank you 😀
@@FieldviewAdventures Have you replaced it with another van ? I purchased my first Motorhome just last week so have a lot to learn
@@marke293 yes we found the kon-Tiki just wasn’t big enough so we have a Burstner Argos now, sooo much better!!
Thanks for showing us around your new home! Perfect van for full timing ❤
Thank for watching guys 🥰
I can’t wait for your full time adventures to start, will be great to see how it all goes 😁
Cheers Matt , ye hopefully I’ll be able to do more filming and more vlogs 😬
@@FieldviewAdventures and that intro dude 😱🙏👌🏻🥳
@@zafiracamper thanks mate 😝
A lovely little new home. You look like you’ve been busy. Missed Kathryn and Zak in this one. Look forward to seeing it in person 😊
They will be back next week 🤣 . Ye we’re looking forward to getting out in it more and see you guys 🥰
That was a ‘flashy’ start…made our eyes boggly 🤣🤣
Great van tour, and you certainly have done enough to get you offgrid. Throw out the microwave for sure, and agree about the curtains to be changed. It’s a smart motorhome, great size for fulltiming in it….although right now we have winds of +50mph…so it’s not so much fun being fulltime today 🤣👍😍x
Aawww thanks guys , hope your eyes recovered 🤣🤣 .. ye winds getting up here as well , definitely no fun in a van 🚐. Hope to see you both soon we’re ringing up tomorrow to book in 😛 xx
@@FieldviewAdventures yay excellent, it may go to answerphone if we aren’t in the office, but we will call you back as soon as 😍x
Really enjoyed that look around and wonder if you've solved the shoe issue, nearly brake my neck daily in a pair of size 11s! Different model to ours but we love our Swift Kontiki 😊
We didn’t manage to sort out the shoe situation but we have changed moho now 😊
Thanks for the tour looking forward to following your adventures. Will be interesting seeing how you get on. Good luck guys take care 👍
Aaawww thanks guys appreciate your well wishes 🥰
Like your Van Tour, My wife Jacqui and myself have only just bought ourselves a motorhome and have plans for many adventures, including the Nland250. Our MH is a 19 yrs old Benima Perseo 710CC but it is in brilliant condition with only 23500 on the clock. Probably needs quite a few modifications but very happy with it.
Thanks Steve 👍 .. we really enjoyed the 250 we’d like to do it again when we’ve more time to explore . We also did the south west 300 in Scotland, that’s got some cracking scenery .. bet you guys are planning plenty of trips now you’ve got it 😊
@@FieldviewAdventures absolutely!!!
Love the new van and look forward to your travels. We are just looking for our first Motorhome.
Oh wow how exciting 😃what sort of van are you looking for, have you decided?
@@FieldviewAdventures We aren’t too sure which layout we want. Obviously struggling too because we want newer than what we can afford. Our max is £30k. Fixed bed seems better than keep making beds up but then one of you always has to climb over the other if you need to get up in the night. So many options and questions it’s difficult to know where to even start😀
@@carolknott3276 we decided that the rear lounge was more important for living space rather than a large garage and fixed bed( although both would be good😅) with there being 3 of us and we also had to look at the best way to give zak his own space with him shortly becoming a teenager! You have to decide what aspects are more important for you in a van and go from there x
@@FieldviewAdventures thank you so much, we have seen a couple that we like at Northern Motorhome Buyer so might go and look around. Thanks again and good luck with the move.
@@carolknott3276 there’s no harm in looking, that’s who we got ours from. Good company to deal with 😊 thank you and best of luck finding your right van cx
Love the Kontiki 🥰 great van😍 the modifications you’ve done to it are brilliant and will really help you, we also have two toilet cassettes and a second one is invaluable when your off grid 👍 😊 not sure about the shoe situation can you fit something to the inside of the wardrobe door 🤔 can’t wait to catch up with you all 🥰 Christmas in Spain definitely sounds like a plan!! Xxx
Ye we can’t wait for a catch up with you guys as well .. we’ll Spain is the plan if everything goes to plan ☺️ xx
Hi, thoroughly enjoy your channel, have you ever cooked a fray bentos pie in the ridge monkey. Thanks James.
Thanks James 😁 … I’ll be honest I’ve never tried one of those in the ridge monkey .. there actually very tasty pies indeed … might have to try in a future vlog !!
where do you microwave pigeons?
great vlog as per usual Stephen. and a very nice van.
Thanks mark 👍
Nicer than a raft👍
Definitely dude !!!
wtf was the flashy inro lol = i just had a fit
🤣🤣
@@FieldviewAdventures ok now wil watch the rest haha
@@DroneHDTV lol 😂 there’s no more flashing 💪🏼😝
Hi mate this is lovely not that much different than mine really you on bout re doing ductwork don’t bother mate a did it and heater not powerful enough to pump it right frew mate But u got lovely new home
Cheers mate . Ye I was wondering if it would blow right to front of van .
@@FieldviewAdventures hi mate a did it and it wudnt av got one them maxpeeding rods once but don’t have nuth to pump frew all ductwork a spent bout 30/40 quid on pipe and connections was a waist of time and money mate av put mine so it’s to one outlet blowing down middle of motor home works well mate 👌
@@FieldviewAdventures 5kw ower one as well mate
@@Lostsome ok mate nice one . Think a better option for us would be to move it central in the van , but hopefully once full time we can just go somewhere warm in winter 🥶🥶
@@FieldviewAdventures wishing you a the best of luck in your new adventure mate u got a lovely family hopefully one day we bump into each other on ower travels 👌
Massive decision, but i hope it all goes well.started following you and watched quite a few of your vlogs now. Quick question are you a sparky. Also, you sound quite local to me where are you from?
I’m originally from Doncaster and living near Retford atm . I’m actually a heavy plant fitter by trade . It’s a big decision but one we’ve given lots of thought to 😀
@Field view Adventures thought you were close from Barnsley. I'll be watching really enjoyed the vlogs. It's great to see you doing it as a family.
@@PitchandPuttGolf Arh not to far away 💪🏼 glad your enjoying our vlogs , thanks for the support ❤️
Hi mate.
Brilliant vid as always.
Hoping you or viewers can help me out.
I’ve got a 2018 swift and recently coming back from Yorkshire to Manchester my engine warning light came on.
I phoned the aa out and he done a diagnostic to tell me it was my acceleration pedal sensor.he deleted everything and said just take the a roads and get your self home .so I rang my mobile Machanic once I arrived home as the light came again.
He came out and put the computer on to tell me it’s my brake sensor and he couldn’t do it for a few weeks.
I decided to buy a diagnostic and I’ve plugged it in and received a code of po482.
This means cooling fans ?????
I’ve been on internet and you need to check a few things,
Ie:
Relays
Wiring to fans
Fans are working
I’m really reaching out as I don’t know what to do
Can anyone help please
Hi Anthony , the problem with some of the cheap code readers they won’t pick up all the faults , I get someone with a decent code reader to scan it again personally to see what comes up , what problems did u find when the light come on ?
