TESTIMONIALS

Check out what they are saying about AS Air Suspension on the Motorhome Fun Forum

Mr Lorrimer – Tadcaster – November 2011 (1997 TW Mercedes Sprinter)

Just a quick note to say the Hymer passed the AS Air suspension railway bridge test course with flying colours and didn't ground once on the bike rack, as a second test we parked in the lorry park just off Saddleworth Moor for our tea and on entrance to the parking place the ground looked like a motocross park!!!!! no problems with another bar of pressure (would not have dared to enter before) the final phase of testing was at 70 on the motorway past the trucks which normally involved using 3 lanes,,,,,,,,not even a small sway during a windy night!!!! FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!

Only minus point is, that I should have had them fitted years ago!

Cheers Phil and Cath really pleased, great service from you and the product and would gladly recommend you to friends .

Mr Cotterill – Northwich – November 2011 (2006 Alko)

Just back from our first outing in the Hymer since you fitted the air suspension - brilliant, what a difference - no wallow, roundabouts are a dream and the motorway was rock solid - thank you both.

Hazel & Steve Knowles – Cumbria – October 2011 - (2008 Alko chassis)
Hazel and Steve had both AS Air Suspension & HPC Hydraulic levelling installed on their motorhome

Just a note to say thank you for the work on our vehicle. The levellers are brilliant, push of a button, jacks come down, automatically adjust, we are set up level and secure. The whole vehicle is more secure and as you know with Kim who has learning difficulties, we found the benefit of steadying the motorhome an extra advantage. Also if one of us decides to stay in bed, the other can move in and out of the motorhome without the other one feeling they are at sea. Although initially the system seemed expensive, it has been worth every penny and we both agree that it has been one of our best add ons. The AS Air suspension, again is an excellent addition, especially on the motorway, when being overtaken. We really felt the difference, when loaded and on our way through Europe. Both the installations were carried out professionally, in a nice clean organised workshop. Although it was the first time we had really met you, we felt as though we had been friends for a long time, you really made us all very welcome..

Mr & Mrs Smallwood – Flintshire – October 2011 – (2008 TW Ford Transit)

I purposely have not written before now regarding the AS air suspension, as I thought a good test would be good before I do. Now I can safely say what a great decision of ours it was to have the air suspension fitted the difference in travel comfort is remarkable also the added comfort of knowing a ramp of less than normal incline does not pose the problem as it did previously. I have to say we are most impressed to say the least. I believe it to be an excellent addition to our suspension and has really made a difference to the travel comfort of the van. It was good to meet you both and thank you so much for the service you provided whilst the AS was being fitted, very grateful. Thanks also for the detail on the water purifier we are considering one for the Motorhome.

Mr & Mrs Brindley – Bedford – October 2011 – (2009 Ford Transit TRW Drive)

The air suspension itself is absolutely superb. No more worries (or possibilities) of grounding out, especially getting on and off our drive with that long and low Burstner rear overhang. Getting on and off ferries is going to be a whole lot easier from now on!! Fitment of your air suspension system has improved ride quality beyond all recognition and is really comfortable now.
Edna and I would just like to thank you for looking after us whilst our air suspension was being fitted. We had a good day out in Liverpool and had the added bonus of reasonable weather. Our two night stay at the Caravan Club's Wirral Country Park was really good - all in all a very good weekend.
Once again, many thanks to you and all the best for Christmas and the new year .

Mr Pye – France – October 2011 – (2001 Fiat Ducato)

Thanks for your excellent service, felt the difference driving back to France much more stable on roundabouts and passing HGVS, thanks again.

Mr & Mrs Pringle – Liverpool - October 2011 – (2011 Fiat Ducato)

We really noticed the difference straight away even the windy conditions on the way home, were no match for the air suspension, there was no swaying or rolling. Everything was much quieter and smoother, we are looking forward now to just pressing the button to lift the rear, before getting on that ferry.
Once again, thanks to you and Phil and the team for a great job, just can’t wait to go on our next trip and enjoy the benefits.
Lovely to meet you.

Mr P Reehal – Powys – August 2011 – (Mercedes Sprinter 518)

Just a note to say how delightful it was to meet you both and to say thank you for your courteous, professional and valued service.
I fitted the units yesterday using my local garage pit and was ably assisted by Martin the owner. I had wired and plumbed the panel and compressor prior to fitting the air units and must admit that it was very straightforward thanks to the clear instructions. I made a DIN panel out of some walnut I had in my workshop and though it has yet to receive a coat or two of gloss varnish, it blends in with the plastic veneer really well. I am very pleased with the result.
I attach a photo for your files and for any 06 onwards Sprinter owners who would like to see the gauge panel fitted. I was able to route the air lines and conduit through the floor grommet over the fuel tank and under the NSF seat where I bolted the compressor.
Sue and I wish you both every success for the future and should you have anyone in Mid Wales who would like a demo of the units, do give me a ring.

Mr Q Reed – Somerset – July 2011 – (2005 Nissan Navarra)

The air suspension you fitted to our Navarra truck has been a great success .
With the truck camper loaded ( a payload which approaches a ton in weight) we can adjust the suspension to give us a level ride. This has improved the stability of the rig when being overtaken on motorways and made the ride more comfortable all round.
The suspension no longer bottoms out on bumpy roads either so it's been a really worthwhile addition to the truck. With the camper off of the truck we run the air suspension at about 0.75 bar and 4 bar with the camper mounted. This has fully made our truck into a truly dual purpose vehicle, a motorhome with the camper on and a family car with the camper unloaded, with a comfortable stable ride in either mode. Wonderful! Many thanks.

Mr & Mrs Welling – Mansfield – May 2011 – (2010 Ford Transit)

When I travelled up your lane following the fitting I could notice the difference straight away with the Air Suspension, so much smoother over the Road Humps. Eileen and I have every confidence that the waste water tank is not going to be ripped apart when disembarking from the Ferries.
Phil, thanks very much for a very professional fitting and Cath for your logistical skills, all the planning went very well and my visit to Albert Dock in Liverpool was most enjoyable, such a shame that Eileen could not make the trip.

Mr & Mrs Pinnington – Lancaster – April 2011 – (2008 Fiat Ducato)

Thanks for a job well done!
It really was a pleasure to have you working in our van. We also enjoyed your hospitality and company.
The van drove well on the way home, definitely more stable. It does not rock as much either when stationary when we enter and exit. Thanks again!

Mr J Loomes – Essex – March 2011 (2009 Fiat Ducato)

Just to say how please we where we the air suspension , we have just returned from France and I could not believe the difference in the handling of our motorhome, thanks again.

Mr P Rive – Jersey – March 2011- (2010 Fiat Ducato)

Good morning Cath just wanted to say a big thank-you for your assistance with my suspension kit. It went together like a dream, so easy to fit in a little under eight hours. I pumped it up and left it over night came back in the morning and it was still at two and a half bar.
The ride is superb the van sits approximately 4'' higher than before with the ability to raise another 3''. Hopefully this should sort our ferry problems. Once again many thanks it's a superb kit.
Phil has kindly offered to show the AS Air Suspension kit, to anyone in Jersey, who may be interested in purchasing kit for their vehicle, on the leaf-spring type chassis (non-alko only). Please ask Cath at ‘AS’ for details.

Mr & Mrs Greenwood – Leicestershire – March 2011 – (2007 Fiat Ducato)

This is to say 'thank you for everything' during our visit to you on March 1st. Firstly, the recommendation to stay at The Holly Bush was very pleasant with lovely meals (large portions!!). Well recommended.
It was a pleasure to be welcomed and treated so nicely by you both. The lift into Warrington was much appreciated by my good lady while the work was being carried out by Phil. On our return, we very much appreciated the opportunity for us to look over the conduit/cable work you carried out underneath. The feel of our motorhome on our return journey, with the addition of the air suspension, was remarkable. Especially on the bends and roundabouts.
It was a pleasure for us to have met you both. Whenever we can, we will recommend you to other motorhome travellers - (already begun on meeting motorhome owners on Thursday!). Will pop to say "hello" if we spot you at the shows. Once again, thanks for everything.

Mr & Mrs Delauney – East Sussex – March 2011 – (2006 Alko)

Just a quick line to say many thanks for the air suspension that your company fitted to our AL-KO chassis on our Hymer. The work was of the highest quality and we noticed much improvement to our ride on the 280 mile journey back to east-Sussex. We also enjoyed our stay at the Hollybush Inn and our day trip to Chester

Mr & Mrs Neary – Rugeley – March 2011 – (2006 Alko)

Just a short note to say thank you for all you help last week when we had the Air Suspension fitted to our motorhome, the ride back home was great we really noticed a difference its so smooth, and we could get on our drive no problem ! So all in all a very successful day.
Thanks again for dropping us off at the station we had a really good time in Liverpool.
Hope to see you again and once again many thanks we can’t recommend yourselves or the system you fitted highly enough.

Mr & Mrs Griffiths – Mold – July 2010 – (2005 Fiat Ducato)

Our drive home was so improved that it was like driving a different motorhome, the air suspension has made a vast difference and it is so convenient and easy to use.
Phil your mechanical expertise helped us to sort out the unrelated issue with our motorhome. We will most certainly recommend you to others and will trust you in the future to give us sound honest advice. Thank you Cath and Phil for your professional and courteous manner.

Mr & Mrs Sullivan – Middlesex- June 2010- (2005 Fiat Ducato)

We purchased the unit at the Peterborough Show and chose to have it fitted at Warrington.
We spent a pleasant evening at the Holly Bush, arriving at the workshops at 9am.
Catherine dropped us into Warrington where we spent the day; she collected us when the work had been completed.
The installation is 1st class with attention paid to detail. Cables are run in flexible conduit and not just stapled to the bottom of the vehicle,
the control panel is fitted neatly into the dash panel and the pump concealed in a locker. I can recommend anyone to have the fitting done by Phil.
The performance was noticeable immediately, the road holding, cornering and straight-line driving have all been greatly improved.
Now 2 months later I am still as pleased with the handling and glad that I had your equipment installed.
Thank you for your great service.

Mrs Innes – Dronfield – June 2010 – (1998 Mercedes Sprinter)

Dear Phil and Cath, Just a quick note to say what a fabulous piece of kit. Had a roll free and less noisy ride home; the difference was really very noticeable. Have already recommended you to two colleagues (they are borrowing the Hymer to try it). If you would like to use us a reference at any time please do not hesitate to do so. Thanks once again, see you at Newark.

Mr & Mrs Wrigley – Bristol – March 2010 – (2008 Alko)

Dear Catherine & Phil Just had to write and thank you for both the everything . I really hadn't realised what a difference the air suspension was going to make to the comfort & handling of what is a relatively new vehicle. It now drives like a modern car no rolling about really inspired confidence and generally makes driving far less tiring and far more fun. It was also a rare pleasure to be welcomed and treated so well; believe me it is very rare indeed for me to sense and recognise this. Finally if you are down this way and in need we are at your disposal (I think I've heard gentlemen on the telly put it that way). Thanks again!

Mr & Mrs Perry - Bedfordshire - February 2010 - (2009 Fiat Ducato)

Hi Catherine, I would like to say thank you very much for both yourself and Phil`s friendliness on Friday. when I was communicating with you prior to fitting I new I had made the right choice.
Well for want of a better phrase "the air suspension does exactly what it says on the tin".
Played around with the pressure on drive home and found that 2 bar was ok but 2.5 bar + ish was better. So Phil was right at about 3 bar.
Well it was a delight meeting you both and I have already recommended you to a friend and motor home sales guy.

Mr & Mrs Davies - Leighton Buzzard - November 2009 - (2007 Ford Transit)

Thank you so much for the brilliant service you provided, we were so pleased that we managed to find a company like yours, that provide a good all round professional service. The lift to the station for our day out, was much appreciated. The journey home in our motorhome proved to be so much smoother than our outward bound journey. The potholes were ironed out considerably and whilst overtaking high sided vehicles there was a marked improvement.
No doubt we will meet up with you again at one of the shows. In the meantime we will recommend your company with great enthusiasm to our many and varied motorhome friends .

Mr & Mrs Mummery - Suffolk - November 2009 - (2006 Renault)

We had the most enjoyable return journey to East Anglia, our little Burstner seemed to have grown wings, since you fitted your AS Air Suspension to it and needless to say, handling, ride, road-holding and cornering at roundabouts, were all vastly enhanced. We did not expect such an overall improvement. Well done AS Air Suspension and thank you, it was indeed a pleasure meeting you both, we hope to see you again soon, socially.

Mr & Mrs Bunoz - Sussex - November 09 - (2005 Alko)

Just to let you know we are very impressed with the AS air suspension. We noticed the difference straight away, so thanks once again, hope to see you at 2010 rallies.

Mr & Mrs Nicholson - Co Durham - October 2009 - (2008 Alko)

Just a line to thank you both for your hospitality last week. The finished job has worked better than i had hoped. The difference is fantastic with all roll stopped and the peace of mind to have the ability to raise the rear if required.
We hope to meet up with you next year to have a laugh so brace yourselves. It is my intention to post a letter of satisfaction on the motorhome web sites as your workmanship and service was excellent.
Anyway, here's to yourselves and we hope you have a busy 2010.

Mr & Mrs Bond - Bolton - September 2009 - (2006 Renault)

We are writing to say how impressed we are with AS Air suspension Ltd, we were made to feel very welcome both before and after the air suspension system was fitted.
When we collected our motorhome you could see the difference straight away we inspected the work and a professional job was done, again impressed. On taking the motorhome home we could feel the difference straight away cornering felt much safer especially going around roundabouts. On the motorway was a big improvement I found I was not fighting for control as I did before when passing wagons, again impressed. Getting it on and off the drive is now a lot easier and safer. We also noticed when we walked around the motorhome it did not rock as much as it used to; wife impressed. I would recommend anyone who has not got air suspension to get it fitted and fitted by AS Air suspension Ltd well worth the money and you won't regret getting it. Again thank you very much for a job well done.

Mr & Mrs Munro – Kent – September 2009 – (2009 Mercedes Sprinter)
First off thanks for a great job, it was a pleasure doing business with you. The air suspension "dose what it say on the can" it raises the back of the van, so that we run level all the time. More important we don't worry that we'll damage the bottom when loading onto ferries.
Our van is quite large so in strong wind conditions we take care, however an added bonus has been greater stability when overtaking, or mores to the point being overtook by large vehicles.
Thank you for a very neat and professional job and your help when we went off route, en-route!

Mr & Mrs Stewkesbury - Dover - September 2009 - (2006 Renault)

Thank you for fitting the air suspension to my Autotrail Miami. The improvement is marked. Rear end clearance is greatly improved as is ride comfort. You delivered the service you promised at the price quoted, rare these days. The service was first class and friendly. it was more like meeting old friends than dealing with a business. Good luck in the future.

Mr Lilley - Herefordshire - August 2009 - (2009 Fiat Ducato)

Just to say the motorhome is now perfect to handle when reversing uphill and the air suspension works a treat.  Appreciate your hard work in getting it back to us in record time, more time to get ready for our break away so thanks again for that. We will pass on your information to any other motorhome owners who had the same problems as we did.

Mr & Mrs Richardson - Market Harborough - June 2006 - (2005 Alko)

We found a much improved ride especially on roundabouts and also noticed that we are no longer blown about on the motorway by passing lorries and coaches. We are now able to lift our low exhaust up to 5.5 inches (approximately 137mm) at 3bar pressure, making the crossing over speed bumps scrape free.
We are very pleased with having AS Air Suspension fitted to our vehicle, it is so easy to operate, we would recommend it to anyone.

Mr A Wilson - Cornwall - May 2009 - (2006 Alko)

As you know the reason for fitting air suspension to our camper was to get up and down our new driveway, i/e very steep with camber of road was fouling spare wheel carrier and tow bar. As I am a road transport engineer of many years [truck and bus ]   I would like to say what a pleasure it was dealing with your company a fantastic result in product and quality of workmanship.
Our visit to 'AS', the drive from Cornwall some 300 miles, stay over at camp site, leave camper with you for the day and collect and drive home the return trip was a transformed vehicle, now a pleasure to drive, as my objective was only to lift the rear for ground clearance.
Thanks again for your professional help and advice it would be a better world for us all to have service of the standard that you are providing.
 

Mr A Lyon - Cambridge - April 2009 - (Conversion Kit)

I would like to put on record my complete satisfaction with the conversion kit I purchased at the Peterborough Motor Show. I consider it very good value and recommend that any motor home owner with air suspension without a device of this nature would benefit from the purchase of one of these units.

Mr & Mrs Scott - Peterborough - April 2009 - (2008 Tag axle Alko)

Just a note to say how pleased we are with our new 'uplifted rear-end'
We sat out in the sun on Sunday admiring the clearance we now have('feel-good' sensation).
Looking forward to the Lincoln show.

Mr & Mrs Perry - Rochester Kent - November 2008  (2008 Alko)

The air suspension is going well. I no longer have a problem with the rear end scraping on slopes and the ride quality has improved. There seems to be less "bounce" from the rear and stability in cornering is a lot better.

Mr & Mrs Turner Glossop/Spain - November 2008  (2005 Alko)

We'd like to say we're very pleased with the AS Air Suspension system. It has improved the ride and the handling of our Knaus SunLiner and even an awkward ferry ramp in Sicily didn't cause our overhang to "bottom".
We definitely recommend it!
Mr & Mrs Lydford – Cornwall - October 2008  (2004 Alko)

You fitted your suspension to our van in September. What a great job you did. It is so much better with the kit on, no more worries about going on the ferries for us. Thank you very much; your workmanship and customer care is first class. We will tell all our fellow campers about your service.
Once again thank you for all your help.
Mr M Williams – Cambridgeshire - September 2008  (2007 Fiat Ducato)

We have just arrived back from 3 weeks in Italy. We are very pleased with the air suspension system that you supplied to us. 2.5 bar gives an excellent ride and we often lifted our tail on ferries and numerous ramps on campsites. We did not ground out once. The look on other camper's faces when instead of getting out the ramps we simply pressed the compressor button and the let out air to suit. Show offs or what?
All the best to you.
 
Mr & Mrs Hepburn - Scotland - September 2008  (2006 Fiat Ducato)

I am delighted with the van; a long motorway trip with no discernable swaying made such a difference. Many thanks for all your help and if you need an endorsement or demo in Scotland feel free to use my e-mail.
Mr & Mrs Campbell – Lancashire - July 08  (2008 Alko)

First of all we need to let you know what a tremendous improvement to the ride quality we experienced after you fitted the air suspension to our new Fiat Frankia yesterday. As you know this was our main purpose in having the job done. It was something of an article of faith as you might imagine being the first UK van to be fitted with the new Alko chassis kit. But, we needn’t have worried, it drove home like a different vehicle, smoothing out the roads’ lumps and bumps much more effectively and making the drive a much quieter and more enjoyable experience. We would certainly recommend it to other owners who want a more comfortable ride.
Thanks too for the friendly way you do business – you made having the job done an enjoyable experience.
 

Mr & Mrs Hughes – Colwyn Bay - July 2008 (2002 Fiat Ducato)

Just a little line to thank you both for your generous hospitality to us, on our visit to you, to have your air suspension fitted to our Motorhome. We were extremely pleased with the whole experience, finishing and fitting of your system and will strongly recommend you to our friends. We are looking forward to seeing you both again at the Malvern Show.

Mr & Mrs Hewitt – Rochester, Kent – May 2008  (2005 Alko)

Just a quick email to thank you both for the excellent job you did for us on Friday and for the lift into town during the day.
The run down through Wales was a good road to test the suspension a definite improvement on stability and handling. And the most important part for us we can now reverse the van onto the drive without using ramps.
