No problem with 11:00 am on Wed at Aldi in Atherstone - will be outside the main entrance. Aldi store is easy to find as it's up the main one way high street right to the end and 1st left past the end of the high street shops. See U there. I will arrive in a grey Nissan Juke if you arrive before me. Yes I am into my 3rd year of retirement. Love it !! Ciao for now - thanks

Sorry you were asked the way to the toilets! What a nightmare drive home. The wipers got clogged with snow, had to squirt most of the screen wash all over them. Thank you, hope you will be happy with it.

Hi Austin, Sorry for the confusion with your wife. I was lost in my thoughts when she approached. Yes, terrible weather the journey back. Still glad you both got back in one piece. Thanks again for the purchase. Best Regards

hello
Did you find a solution for an awning with your Nissan Elgrand? I noticed with mine there is no space between the top of the door and the pop up roof seal to affix anything too as the sliding door is higher than that of a T4 /T5.
An awning isn't a must for me but would be interested to see how yours joins to your van. Straps across would be the only solution.
Thanks

As per other replies the Rheimo awning strip is the dog's b******x and though stupidly expensive is money well spent as night and day compared with other industrial looking strips.. Also being a stylish gutter it one can use the pole and clamp method and kaydar of connecting to the drive away awning. Our Vango air beam awning has three means of connection, the two above and over roof straps but these can mark your paintwork and pop up roofs can get in the way. The kaydar method requires purchase of fig of 8 pkatic strips if drive away required. We favour pole and clamp as quick, flexible and easy. I can send a photo but don't think this form facilitates attachments
