Hey folks. Managed to get myself a good looking Mk5 SWB in 'white' . Will post some photos tomorrow and keep you posted. Might be looking for ideas as to what to do with it though. LOL

I want to keep the van as a van but want it to look a wee bit different. Any ideas what to do? Obviously I have to get it through it's MOT first. Surprisingly it only needs a small amount of welding!! Also need a windscreen and a N/S mirror assy. Previous owner has put heavy duty springs on at some point and it sits high at the rear.

Hey Folks, Haven't really done much to the van since last post. Got a whole load of welding done on floor to get it through it's MOT. I plan to buy new floor panels etc next year but as I need to use the Van just now and can't put it off the road yet I just have to make do .

Did colour code rear bumper end caps and I'm going to paint rear bumper, front bumper and mirror covers next time it's a dry day :roll: :roll:

Still haven't came up with a name yet! Any ideas

Will get some more pics up soon

Call it what you want mate... a few i call mine when i see some more welding that needs doing are as follows. feel free to borrow them
money pit / b*st*d thing / rusty piece of s***

and then when i get it back i call it its proper name and she seems quite happy with that
