Hi
Does anyone know of a place in either county that will be able to do some welding work on my van for me over the winter?
I am seriously suffering from the dreaded "footwells full of water" syndrome.... The problem is though, I can clearly see from the inside of the van that this is going to be a BIG job to rectify. I definately do not have the time or resources to sort this out (even somewhere/someone that wouldn't mind a bit of cash in hand work!)
I live smack bang between Oxford and Reading.
Any suggestions would be greatly recieved!!

You must be near me, I'm in goring. Wallingford? Benson?
Anyway there is a place in shiplake that does classic vw repairs. Or Oxfordshire campers near Banbury. I'm sure some one Will be along soon with more places.

I am certain it will impress!
