So, I probably should have posted this DURING the build but hay-ho, I'm doing it now instead ! As it stands the Kanglio is ready for it's MOT .
This project started in September 2019 when my previous van, a Transit connect, failed its MOT in dramatic style, mostly rust based.

Step 2, find a donor Clio 182. Again after some more poking about, forums etc I picked this up:
