I have a local installation of 4.8.0 which works with the built in MNTP, but with my test install on Windows Server 2008 R2, it doesn't show the nodes.
The content is the same on both installations, as it has been packaged and installed via the install packages.
There was also problems during installation, where it jumped over the user setup, which I got around by manually setting up users in the database, but the installation still feels a bit buggy compared to the one I have locally.
Not sure if it is related, but the search is not working either. I.e. not returning results for valid search terms, which return values on my "identical" local solution.
My gut tells me it's permissions, but where to start when most things work?
Yup, sounds like permissions to me. Try giving the IIS_IUSRS group modify permissions to everything to test first, then revert to just the necessary permissions.
Also, oyu may want to check any javascript errors you're getting and see what ajax calls are failing and why.

That's a good start, didn't think of that. The error that doesn't show locally is:
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)

Great, thanks!
The App Pool was apparently using the Local System account, so changed that to Network Service and gave all permissions and it's working!
A side not on the search. It was necessary to republish the content tree to populate the indexes for searching.
is working on a reply...
