Hi guys I’m now the new owner of a t25 1988 multivan so have a few newbie questions. I’m based in Bury St Edmunds Suffolk so would like to know who in the Suffolk area would people recommend to get my heater working and to replace window rubbers and bodywork around the windows. It’s a lhd the speedo works but it’s in kmh and the mileomoter didn’t work is this an easy swap. Looking forward to hopefully meeting any one else in the near future.

It doesnt answer your question but many of not all things on a T25 are possible to DIY.
T25 take alot of tinkering and armed with simple tools you can DIY to save costs.
If you have space and time you will be better for it.
T25 are easy to buy but the maintenace will kill you of going over a garage each time.

The great thing is they haven't evolved and prett much everting is here and on BW.

Get the rubbers from BW, genuine if poss and the window repair panels. Its a cut out and weld job and respray. A garage will charge silly money.

I done my front and rear windows last year on the drive (got a mobile welder in). Removed everything myself (entire dash - good time to tidy wiring). Just welding cost me 300. Taking the windows out and refitting was very easy. Just make sure to use washing line.

Point really is using a garage for t25 will cost you alot and you will soon fall out with the bus.
