I'm in Wiltshire. The van is getting a little surface rust, I think the underside will be ok to seal/repaint. Interior is not too bad. Engine runs fine, got a few problems with oil buzzer but nothing particularly wrong with it. I suppose what I'm looking for is to make the vehicle more practical and...

The only thing left, which is the first thing my mechanic wanted to do(!), is to change the circuit board. Unfortunately VW has stopped making these. Can a new one be made from scratch or ...
