Many thanks for kind comments and thumbs-up, guys. Much appreciated!
Next step is to get the wheels refurbished and new tyres all round, then tools out for a major service, fit a towbar and cruise control, and get it through the MoT next month. All the wiring will present a challenge, as I don't have that much experience of electrics, and none at all with VCDS. Like to give things a go though. What could possibly go wrong....?
Think we'll be in a minority on here, as we're drawn to the old school/ retro/ keep it simple approach, hence retaining the steel wheels, black plastic bumpers, etc.
Looking forward to plenty of time on the Forum as I come to grips with our first water-cooled VW van.
