Spray tan
I have just go my 1988 T25 Multivan Magnum back from the sprayshop at Simcox on the Westfield Trading estate, Midsomer Norton, Somerset. http://forum.club8090.co.uk/posting.php?mode=post&f=1#" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
It's in the original creamy white.
Not only did they turn it around in 3 1/2 weeks which is just over the expected 3 weeks they recolored the wiper arms to be as original and refurbished the bumpers and skirts and mirrors.
They also did the underside in black and underseal and sorted the seals for the sunroofs and reproduced the German dealers sticker on the tailgate
The finish is excellent and on top of that it came to slightly less than estimated. So far I am delighted http://forum.club8090.co.uk/posting.php ... &f=1#First" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; sign of rust and I'll be miserablehttp://forum.club8090.co.uk/posting.php?mode=post&f=1#" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
So Simcox get my recommendation.
If I could work out how to get a picture on here I'd show you the result.

Re: Spray tan
I've put the pics on photobucket and this should be the link.

There is also a couple of views from the van over the Severn towards South Wales last summer
Hopefully this will get you there.

Re: Spray tan
Looking smart, especially like the bumpers with the rubber trim, they put mine to shame. It's traditional to ask how much it cost. How much did it cost?

Re: Spray tan
Very nice looking van. Chrome bumpers would make it look even nicer
It's your van though, not mine

It's nice to hear of good workmanship and service being praised online.

Re: Spray tan
I'm really pleased with it. Three arches were quite bad and the seams were getting quite rusty. The bumper is standard on a Magnum apparently as are the alloy wheels no chrome. It was a shade under £4000 which although wasn't the cheapest quote came from the most highly recommended. How long it will stay like this is anybody's guess but I intend to enjoy it while it does. I know the bus isn't worth what it's cost me but that isn't the point. I enjoy driving it more than my A5. But not more than my Blackbird.
