I am trying to get a traditional old look to my bathroom and want to install old style paneling. I am slightly concerned about condensation, etc and i am torn between water resistant MDF sheeting, Tongued, Grooved and V'd red or white deal or Hoebeek cladding which just looks like the red or white deal T&G boards to me.

Has anybody out there experience of this kind of thing? Cost is also a factor but i also want to do it right so that it won't give me problems down the road.
