From the older torque cars forum!
Having clarted on with FTO, MX5 MK2 their gawn, but as a retirement project and owning a T25 years back I've all but finished my LWB T6 self build. DVLA were easy to use re classified 1st time I'll stick a few pictures on later but here's the mostly finished

Awesome that looks amazing, I hope you use it loads, I see too many campervans used once or twice a year and left to sit on the driveway for the rest of the year.

I really like the graphic on the side.

As this is torque forums spose I ought to list any mods to the actual base vehicle lol!
Engine: bought as the 105bhp, the 140 came at a silly price because you had to buy other stuff!
So remapped to 180bhp via "bluefin" got the electronics included so can re do if any upgrades etc myself, just plug in download and send to company they re map it send it back via attachment for my ownership of vehicle! Gives me the overtaking power if needed mpg whilst towing bike 39-40 mpg at 16k miles
19" wheels front needs lowering ( on list )
K&N air panel filter
Sport rear hatch spoiler
Double slider doors.
