Screwfix is still open for click and collect, FYI. Cool project. I used to drive a van just like yours, and while it wasn't an especially enjoyable experience, I can't fault the vehicle at all. Good van. For the timbers, I'd look at screwing them in from the bottom up, you can use the screws designed for tin roofs that have a rubber washer on the shoulder. Plus you are then screwing into wood, which is something you can actually screw into.

The solution to the alignment is that now you've already screwed in from the top, you can remove every second screw in each piece of timber, and then replace them with ones from underneath, then repeat for the other screws. But yeah, if you can't get under the van to do it then there's no point.

FYI I just went through a 4 month battle to register an imported car with them over similar pedantics, and fortunately they don't charge you until they accept the application. I ended up having to use an agent who is able to speak to the DVLA and get actual feedback, have a conversation, etc. Cost me a few hundred, but got me the info I needed to register the car. You may have luck using a similar service.
