Does anyone know where we can get the zip replaced on the Gelert please?  It's on one of the side doors and it comes apart where the teeth don't meet.  You can get it past that point and then pull down again, but they still come apart.

Thanks

Jane

Someone recommended these guys to me for zip replacement service (rather than self repair). A price of about £15 per meter was suggested.

Attwoolls do replacement zips, and can sometimes repair them. Just up the M5 from you.

Thanks Rob, trouble is too busy at work to try and sort at the minute and back camping again this weekend.  And next weekend, so will have to be a winter job - but thanks all again.
