So in short she needs more work than i can commit too and also will suck up some money.
Engine and Gearbox are good, underside and cab good, tyres and tread good. Sadly habitation area needs much work imo. Water ingress in roof areas and needs stripping and resealing. Electrics need complete overhaul on Habitation side IMO though owner says the system works fine for him, he gets power from a Generator though it's underpowered.
So having a complete rethink having seen it and potentially back to drawing board. Sylvia, the Talisman is sadly not for me and so I might go backwards a step or sideways and sell her and maybe get something in the MWB or LWB low cost range to tide me over til the right van comes my way or I have better facilities for building my own.
This is still for sale though the seller says someone viewing tomorrow.

Although small the Sprinter does have everything we want although could be arranged better perhaps.
