i am now that much more knowledgeable about the Dormobile operation. I
think what I like the most are the Westfalia interiors, but am preferential
to the Dormobile elevating roof, and the fact that the actual roof opening
is much wider. I imagine it would cost a few bucks to send over all of that
stuff! How much is a 1000 quidin terms of American$. Is a quid worth the
same as a pound or what? BTW what would an Ambulance Spotlight/mirror go
for in the UK?I am looking for one like the one that was on the bus on the
cover of the November issue of Volksworld
