Hi,Dont you think 50kg is a wee bit light?I have my spare wheel under van just behind the axle and 2, 4.5kg gas bottles in the locker. Do you think the self levelling suspetsion would make up for the 75kg tow ball limit?
-
Hi Gang, Is it true that the tow ball weight limit on the new gal is only 75kg?If so would have the self levelling suspentsion compensate for this low tow ball weight?I struggle a wee bit to get it around 80 kg just now

The more I have seen the new Gal the more I like it(1 in my home town).The main thing I dont like are the fact that there are no roof bars ,so the car looks lower and the crap choce of colours,Wishy washy or realy dark.

Drivers Door Window

Ok car has been in 4 times now and window lasted a week this time.They say they repgm the window :wacko: what ever that means.spoke to an independante mechanice and he said it would be the window motor as the safty sensor is within the motor.....who is right.... :lol: -
Hi Guys and Dolls, 05 plate Gal ,drivers window has 1 shot down and up,after 3 goes window is still not right,you have to hold the button down all the way and on the up it goes up and then comes back down 3 inches.The enginer (hohoho)did not check his work and now the back ofside window switch sticks because the door trim is not put on properly.So I have to take the car back again and pay for my insurance to be transferred to the loan car (take the p... or what)Any idea what the problem realy is as Ford (Reg Vardy ,Motherwell0 dont have a clue.

Anybody any thoughts on the new gal.Personally I dont like it,when the 3rd row of seats are flat...well its not so flat and the tailgate aperture is not very big to take large loads.As for the seating postion ..is it me..its too low I like to sit high and look over other traffic.Those cubby holes in the roof would drive me mad with the rattling of loose stuff in my ear.Apart from that it looks good from the outside.

Hi all you sad caravaners like me :) I live n Glagow and took my outfit to France for my holidays.We sailed from Hull (P & O) to Zeebrugge in Belgium.My outfit is a Galaxy TDI 150hp and a Bailey Senator Arizona with a caravan mover fitted,also 2 sets of golf clubs and an elictric golf trolly and the usual bits and bobs.So we left Glasgow early doors and put the foot down (65-70 mph) and paid the price at the pumps after 300 miles and nearly a tank of fuel (
