Nuevo purchase

1: As you walk in the van on the sink side there is a black 2” switch screwed just under the worktop, on the top there seems to be 3 positions.
My guess is it was fitted by the previous owner. Can only suggest you switch it and see what happens?

2: Being 6’2” tall the drivers seat doesn’t seem to recline back very far, leaves me sat very upright.
I'm taller than you and I have no trouble. The large reclining knob on the right side of the seat back is sometimes very stiff. Give it some welly while leaning back on the seat.

3: With the tv are you fixing a wall mount or using the shelf?. & I’m thinking of buying a new tv what size is not hinder that area.
Can't help much here, but don't go to extremes with the TV size. Too small and you'll need binoculars - too big and it will be a pain to store.

Hope this helps

Also what make of seat, if you can find a label? It might be an ISRI - I can't remember when A/S fitted those.

(ISRI as in Isringhausen)

I can't remember, but someone will be able to help, now we know which seats you have. I do remember it can catch you by surprise, and launch you toward the windscreen when the catch releases. (I exaggerate slightly of course!  )

It can make quite a difference to the responses when asking certain questions, so it's useful to show the model in your avatar details.

I can't remember having a problem with the ISRI seats, so maybe yours has seized up a bit from lack of use??

If it's got 'a swing sink wall' and no bathroom window I would think it's an early II EK. Still I don't know how much mixing went on ( was it before or after the A/S fire?).

The pics certainly show a lovely van, mine is beginning to look tatty due to heavy use but at least it has the dark brown upholstery which hides all the tea I've spilled on it
