Just noticed an incorrectly fitted aerial...which allows water in, which runs down the inside of the panel and ...... probably into the footwell - though I don't know exactly how..yet.
Looks as if I'll be jacking the van up, taking off the wheels and doing a proper job on the inside of the wheel-arches etc. Then the seats can come out and i'll do the same there along with the battery boxes.
Rust killer - Waxoyl/ Underseal - foil camping mat...then this from www.type2.com:
"First, think twice about what you fill with polyurethane expansion foam. Certain areas of the body are designed to drain water, for example, the bottom of the front doors. Fill these and you will grant yourself endless moist days, and rusty doors. There are plenty of spots where this stuff can cause water to collect. Beware.
B), this stuff is unfathomably sticky, and quite durable. If your appearance or health is of any concern, wear gloves, a long sleeve shirt, goggles, and a hat. Also, if you have neighbors or children nearby, wear trousers.
III-, the instructions say "only fill areas 1/3rd full." This is not idle chatter. This product will miraculously expand for hours as it cures, like Mt. St. Helens, pushing big sticky globs of foam into places where you do not want it to be. Once it is cured (24-48) you can cut it with a razor blade and make little sculptures of the hardened blobs. It took four cans for our project, not counting blob sculptures."

and then ebayed thermal camping mats. I reckon camping shops will be knocking them out for a couple of quid each at this time of year.
Thanks to Harry Mann for all this great info and ideas.
