Hiya, I bought a Sunstar last year & it sounds exactly what I have just repaired,it is quite cheap to repair & a good way of getting to know your van, but dont get carried away because you will find bits of damp everywhere like I did & get very frustrated,I have just replaced the whole rear of my van with new wood etc something I didnt really need to do as a patchup would of done, but Im thinking of when I sell it on I could'nt sell it knowing there was damp & rotten timber.Anyway only replace what you feel you have to as I say you keep going & find more, when removing the wallpaper just scrub the wall down & put a heater in there to dry some of it out,then when you replace your board be careful not to remove any of the poly lagging,then you can replace the plywood, 3.6mm available from b&q is quite adequate & repaper it with contour paper.It is good fun as well as a pain but I did enjoy repairing my van,also have a look at the awning rails they made need resealing..
