Yes I am chuffed with the van, I was a bit dubious about the age until I had a good look around it and read the invoices for all the work it has had done over the last 4 years. The previous owner used it like a car for the last five years and spent a small fortune on it. Without checking the paperwork again I can remember, from 2012 and 2013, new front struts, front drop links, heater matrix, new cam belt, new alternator belt, cam shaft oil seal, new water pump, new clutch, new clutch cable, rear brake rebuild, new locks all round. There is more than that but I would have to check the invoices.
I think the digi photos do flatter the van a bit its got plenty of dings and battle scars but it is a perfect work horse for me. 133K miles so there should be some life left in it yet.
All the pictures were taken outside my house in Fowey, but I see what you are saying the houses around here are similar in age and design to many of the older areas of St Austell. I was a Postie in there for years so walked several miles along those streets.
