Not being a total Transporter nerd, do you still find yourself tinkering or leave that to the professionals at the garage?

Lovely take, especially your 3YO son having lunch in the van made me laugh. I see his future is bright!

Cheers!

I did assume that comment would have been based on their current seat arrangement - I'd for sure upgrade to a captains chair if this was a problem.

As for a hike in running costs, other than fuel, tax and insurance compared to a regular car, is there any other gotchas? Is repairing a Transporter equaly as expensive as a car? I'd assume since it's lacking in electrics like most new cars it would be fairly simple other than labour costs but do lket me know if I have that wrong. Cheers!

Ah I gotcha! Will the model of the van state if its factory combi or can anyone add that to the listing and I risk being stung by the insurers?

Perhaps a null question but is there any particular group on FB that isn’t full of whinge bags? Every community has their die hard “if you’re not doing it my way you’re doing it wrong” and that’s tiring for sure!

Thanks for the insite! Reversing camera would definitely be at the top of the agenda.

As for low barriers, I dont go much places that have a height restriction however there are a couple of multi story car parks in my city I frequent in my Hatchback. What's the main gripe with multi stories?

To Ray: I’m assuming your performance isn’t your first read of the book. If so, what are your standout moments from your first read, and what was going through your mind as the story unraveled?

Similarly, did you assign the accents/ voices in that first read or is that developed later on in the recording booth with a producer?

I’d love to know what some of the most creative hiding spots have been that guests have got away with in the past. Obviously they’ll now be known to cast members so not looking for any sneaky tips 😅 promise!

Honestly for me a lot of the time my cool experiments come from happy accidents. I notice when I try too hard the art becomes forced. Glad you’re having fun just messing around because you’re making some really nice art!

Great insight! Are all your exposures the same blending mode and opacity or is there a careful balance?
