    No. Apart from the drivers side mat, the interior's spotless. There are some battle scars on the bodywork, and while they haven't been panel beaten out or filled smooth, they are all covered in paint. The inside is newly boarded to half height, which curiously was the main reason we went to see it.

    Trouble is, it's a bit too good for the day job now.

    I've had vans from BT and Royal Mail. If you stood in the right place, you could always see the former owner's name.

    Heh. I suppose a full wrap is always an option. A nice pearlescent purple background...

    Edit: Oh no it isn't. Just seen how much that costs. Ouch

    Re the wrap, a kitchen fitter mate has an image of a new kitchen on his van.

    Re cost, I got a new radio for this van, to provide bluetooth handsfree and USB playback. Ex display, a steal at £70. Sadly, fitting kit and fitting is double that. Thank you Ford for using a non standard radio fitting.
