G'day KA
Our's was 4th out of the starting blocks so they were still somewhat feeling their way around. Guess you might say we were Beta testing it for them.
Had a few issues with the
water tanks leaking and some leaks in the annex etc.
Most of the issues arrived with the unit from RSA.
Biggest problem was the shocks. We drive a Landy and to match it they had to narrow the track a wee tad to suit + I only wanted 235/85's, not big fat whoas. This caused big probs with the shocks not adequately damping the rebound of
the springs.
In their defence I must add they couldn't do enough to get it all OK, not only the shocks but also all the other little niggling issues.
They changed the shocks to external canister jobbies yesterday and we're off on a little jaunt this weekend so will put them to the test.
All in all I can't speak more highly of their professional attitude towards getting it right. They did say yesterday that our list of defects together with that of others has resulted in their quality control checklist growing somewhat exponentially, so that's to their credit.
The other thing they mentioned was that they are now getting out 2 per week so your delivery date may be moving closer ;o).
We've made a few other adjustments which may be of interest to you down the track + you may come up with some which would be of interest to us.
Feel free to drop me a line anytime for a chat.
