Photo's look like they were taken at a dealers... if the van is "open" for viewing many dealers remove knobs/shower heads/cushions/water pumps etc etc as there seem to be a great many dishonest idiots who will nick anything whilst "viewing" a van ... dealers put everything back during PDI ... hopefully :)

Replaced the vertical front arm bushes with...

More poly, track grade this time, and drove it to WIM and back. An improvement, which in development terms is a good thing ::), but probably not the one stop solution that was hoped for :-\

Thanks again to Chris for his help :y
