Any suggestions please

Post by kentishvanman »

My 87/88 wagon has now done 110,000 miles. I have owned it since 1999. It has done us proud and had no major problems.
I feel it could do with a bit of attention. There is oil around the gearbox [auto]/engine junction and the radiator etc probably needs replacing. The new lpg valve needs fitting. There is some minor rust issues around a couple of windows. The van has been off the road for a couple of years, for various reasons, but has been started and run at least once a month with no issues.
I have always done all work required myself but it is now a bit of a struggle so any recommendations as to a good/honest garage that could undertake these jobs. Ideally Kent based.
My only alternative is to sell up and buy a 3/4/5 year old camper/motorhome, probably VW, which we can use and will require little maintenance apart from servicing etc.
My preferred choice is to keep my existing one but it is going worsen if I cannot find a decent garage
So, anyone any suggestions?
