A WEST Devon vehicle restoration company is celebrating its success after the recent Cornwall VW Jamboree.

The event was held at Stithians Agricultural Showground near Falmouth over the bank holiday weekend. Dubmonkeys VW Restoration of Tavistock won six trophies.

Steve Moore, the company's 'floor manager' said that after weeks of late nights and hard work from all the team they had managed to win first and third prize in the 'Best VW split screen campervan' — Merv Renshaw and 'The Tweenies'; first and third prize in the 'Best VW Beetle' — Steve Moore and 'The Tweenies'; third prize in 'Best VW Special vehicles' — Merv; and first prize in 'Best water cooled VW' — Wes Sharp.

Steve said it was 'unprecedented in the VW scene for one company's restoration work to win so many awards at one show'.

'This is great news for a small Tavistock born and bred company.'
