Hi folks... I recently discovered that my Betsy and dry stone walls don't gel well together and am now the sorry owner of a deep scratched van. Can anyone recommend a bodywork place in the North West? When I first bought my van I was initially going to get her completely resprayed and was recommende...

I'm heading off to a loc...

I'm not yet authorised to access the link.... but it looks like my kind of camping! I only bought my T25 2 weeks ago - Just heading off now for my first longish journey up to the Lakes.
