Thank you freshandminty but its a long way off lovely at the moment but I am working on it, the short list of the top of my head is new battery tray which is on drivers side, lower wheel arches on both on the passenger side ones, I would like a new factory carpet and some of them overly thick over rugs oh and a small repair to rear bumper and I think the drain pipe for the front sunroof is blocked as the drivers carpet gets wet....but now I've written it down its not actually that much so need to get some money.

Nice.... very nice indeed.
Love these. Wanted a 'one boxer' (Hiace Super Custom, Urvan) but just couldn't find the right one. So I ended up with a Granvia..... same sort of thing, loads of toys and space and 'fun'.
Now its low, perhaps put some retro (banded?) steels on it. Super cool! Just a suggestion as it looks great already.

The wheels bug me, I like the AMG style flat alloys I've seen on some J vans but money is always a factor so was thinking about just painting the insert bits on mine and like I said smaller profile tires or should I just wait the tires still have reasonable tread and buy wheels and tires but hadn't even thought about banded steels do you really think they would suit my van.

Nice van, looks a bit like the earlier Nissan Urvans with that front door line. I think the wheels are alright too

Yes I'm pretty sure urvan, caravan and homy are all the same thing, i change my mind nearly hourly about the wheels but no doubt i will impulse buy some wheels of yahoo and that will solve all my problems.

This looks awesome! Well saved! I quite like the alloys but if you fancied a change I reckon some turbo vane style alloys would look cool!

so 6 months have past and I saved my penny's and ordered adjustable damping shocks and lowering blocks through jessestreeter.com in japan somewhere absolutely amazing service cant fault his help and speedy delivery, finished paying Thursday night our time and parts in my hands Monday lunch time all the way from japan. 
now you can see before and after pictures its lower but it doesn't look like a lowered van to me and if you hadn't seen the before pictures would you even notice it was lowered, I will put lower profile tires on soon, but not sure what I was expecting just thought the before and after would be more noticeable. So now just going to use it a bit and see if it grows on me.
