Hey all. Was going to wait to start a build thread until a little more was done, as any work is currently being done on days off and in evening darkness so progress will be fairly slow, but figured what the hell i'll get it started now.
The van is a 2003 lwb 2.5tdi in a light grey colour and has already had some bits and pieces done, so can't take credit for those. Engine wise it's had a TMIC fitted, some different injectors and a tune and is running approxinately 140bhp (as told by previous owner, no proof but for a van it pulls ok). It's also been lowered a bit, not sure how much but i'm in 2 minds about raising it back to standard but time will tell.
When bought it came with some 17inch alloys and a VanX triple rear seat with seatbelts, neither I wanted so sold the alloys and ended up giving the seat away. Also came with side bars which arw currently up for grabs for free on here wink wink.
First thing I did was to remove the rear seats and brackets and pull the ply floor up just to check there was nothing nasty hidden underneath! Thankfully, all is solid just needing a good clean.
I'm in the process of hoarding all the bits needed to continue so this is where we are for now. I may jump the gun a little and start plugging all the nooks and crannies with insulation as this is a real time consumer. I'll post pics of all products used along the way. Plan is to be complete by March in time for the weather to start warming back up
