I am using the latest version of everything on a new install of joomla and VM.
There are quite a few instances of bad or unclear English in the checkout process and i would like to be able to edit and improve,

Hello,

You can use j25 language override option that make the changes in override language folder. Is better from changing the original language files because every time you make a VM update or an update to language pack if you change the original files will be overwritten and you have to do it again, if you do it by override you can update language files without the need to change again the original files.

You can find a tutorial here for j2.5 language overrides here: http://www.ostraining.com/blog/joomla/languge-manager/

The original files that have string you are interested about cart and checkout are inside
language\en-GB\en-GB.com_virtuemart.ini
language\en-GB\en-GB.mod_virtuemart_cart.ini


Hope it helps

Regards.
