WooHoo! The wipers now work! Turns out that there was more than one problem.... The original motor had burnt out, so a replacement was found in a Land Rover breakers yard, but when this was fitted they still didn't work! A quick check showed the brushes were badly worn, so a quick swap and everything works as it should! Since sorting the wipers I've not had a problem with the battery either, so it looks like it might have been the motor shorting that caused the battery to go flat....
The leaking windscreen has been temporarily fixed with duct tape! The leak seems to be coming from the top of the screen, and a single layer of tape has worked wonders. Hopefully it'll last long until the weather improves and I can sort it properly.
We've decided on a colour scheme for the van once the bodywork is sorted... More details to follow!
