Hi guys, hope the weather has improved for you just now....we have a sunny Bournemouth right now, with a breeze, about 11°C, so could be warmer, but people have been out mowing lawns this last week, so it's getting better! Be lovely by the time you all reach home! where r the spanish four. - Page 3 424776184

Well we d one it, Baza n me have been in the sea here and boy was it chilly but good fun, 2 more days here then off too Grusian plage before wending our way homeward through France. Slowly

Posts : 1986 Join date : 2012-11-15

Well I agree with Bob it was a bit chilly in the Med today but didn't take long to warm up when we got out in the beautiful sunshine, then later me and Bob chilled out with the Pastis while the ladies polished off a couple of bottles of vino blanco , all in all a very enjoyable day in the sun, enjoyed the bike ride we had earlier even if we got a bit lost Wink

Subject: Re: where r the spanish four. Mon 6 May 2013 - 6:00

Well that's it for Spain, off today for la belle France for a slow drive back too dear old Blighty.
Had a great trip with great friends, hope Frank n Marg are still enjoying Benidorm and have a great time, also Pete, Pauline, Mark and Julie are also all OK as they will be nearer home than us by now I think, so see you all soon when we are all back home.

Barb n Bob sunny

Well, we've been home 10 days now, can't wait to get back to the sun. And have you heard the weather forecasters on BBC, ''and for all you gardeners who are desperate for the rain...'' ????? are they kidding?? Sounds like hosepipes bans soon, followed by another wettest drought ever!!!

Safe travels you lot, and see you soon.

where are you guys and gals

Subject: Re: where r the spanish four. Thu 9 May 2013 - 17:31

Well we got some bad news.
We have been in France for a couple of days and Baza has been noticing a knocking niose from the rear axle, well today it developed into a full breakdown with call out.

Now stuck in a garage near Albi awaiting parts and its holiday time here in France so not looking good for a quick repair to brakes.

We have travelled on a bit too Souillac site and await call from Baza, more when I know. :-(

Subject: Re: where r the spanish four. Thu 9 May 2013 - 17:53

Waiting for parts for a Peugeot in France!
Hope you get it sorted quick Baza, whens your ferry/train booked for?

Baza, the Alko factory was 20 miles away from Gruissan plage :-( found that out myself years ago when my shockers snapped of in Narbonne plage

My Alko uses the same hub and brakes as a fiat/peugeot chassis, only the axle is Alko

I have recently serviced my rear brakes with the help of a Fiat manual on CD and they are not Alko manufacture but that of the base vehicle. Should be no problem with parts. Good luck

Cheers Andy , hope you are right

Subject: Re: where r the spanish four. Thu 9 May 2013 - 20:41

I wonder if both axles are the same spec? One could be the original pug hubs and the other might be Alco

Looking at the chassis details it looks like 2 pairs of identical hubs

Blimey, it doesn't take long to forget about your holiday does it Pete. Hope you get your email sorted soon, I have had my Facebook account hacked by someone in the Ukraine! Unfortunately you cannot get away from the toerags.
