Well finally we will have our van next Wednesday.Unfortunatly we have no vehicle to tow it so it will be delivered,posible wait for towbar is 8 weeks..
This means no van for meet up next weekend :(

tell them YOU will ring Parkside Towbars, and have them over in 1 day - 8 weeks my left foot
sounds like they are trying a "brickie" on you

Why would I ring Parkside (which I have already done anyway) when ford already have done and numorous other non genuine suppliers.They have been very helpful trying to get us one.Closest non genuine we can get is 5 weeks.

I have this attitude, that, if you want me to buy your product, you have the sodding thing there when I want it, not later next solstice

or

I go else where...........

BBQ Galore or any weber supplier will have them...... Just make sure it is the correct fitting as there are two different types.
Weber is the 3/8" SAE... NOT 3/8" BSP!

BCF do sell them from memory... Just make sure you get the weber brand to be sure as the pimple faced staff probably wouldn't have an idea what they are talking about if you ask them!
That's why I have been waiting to buy it so I can check the Bayonet on the van and the other end for weber.Too costly to get wrong one.

Bayonet would be a standard fitting but for some reason there are two types of fittings to go on gas appliances..... If you want one that doesn't fit the weber I have one you can have :oops:
