I paid a visit to a company yesterday where they carry out a lot of damp repairs on caravans and motorhomes
There were vans only 2 and 3 years old with rotten wooden frame structures ,to repair this they have to some times completely gut a van to get to it.
The leak is a pinhole in some sealer which drips very slowly.
I cannot believe in the 21st century that we still use Victorian principles for making vehicles to use.
Do they still use wood on a Mini /Morris traveller ---No
Would anyone want to go into a showroom and ask for a BMW or Mercedes "oh , can I have a wooden chassis please"
There must be a fibre / resin / carbon / plastic material that could be used that wont rot, or do manufactures like to have a `timed life ` for a vehicle
