Oops just discovered another fault to add to the snagging list.

Gas strut at left hand side of fixed island bed is dangling in fresh air and not connecting the liftable bit to the base unit.

Given that the other strut on the right hand side is connected this pulls the bed across to the right in the down position and makes the centre bracing on the liftable area miss the bracing on the base unit.

PDI's what a joke!

Im expecting our 'handover' in a week or two to be minus gas. I'm told that 'elf 'n safety does not allow them to connect the gas pigtail, as it it cant be tested, may leak, and take out the whole of the north of England. Ok, i made the last bit up, its rubbish, as is their H&S claim.
If they try to show me how everything works - minus gas, which would be a contradiction in terms, i wont cough up, simple as.
I am fully expecting to go round the 'van checking stuff once its home, as i just dont trust the dealers POD one bit.

What a load of rubbish. Perhaps you ought to point out that as the pigtail is fitted by the dealer, and not by Coachman, they have a duty in law to ensure it is fitted correctly. You could get them to explain how they test the pigtail is safe without connecting up to something.

I would ring Coachmen and get their version of what should happen on handover.
