Removed the irmscher back box and started to strip goldie, bloody shame really but todays econamy means i only got to use her on weekends and even then i could burn through over £100 in fuel.
Looking at building a track day car later this year and goldie isnt suitable for that being the elite auto with air suspension and all lol .
Unsure what route to go with a track car thinking of maybe c20let,stripped out totally,coilovers so on so on

Had to move it yesterday for the first time in a week to get access to the garage to fix sons Disco.

He thought its MOT was due on 1st July but it was 1st June.  He took it for a test and it failed on a rear reg plate lamp u/s, headlamp aim too high, rear anto rollbar drop link excess play in balljoint and nearside rear steering damper arm balljoint excess play.

Managed to get the bits and fitted them last night when finished work.  Retest today and its legal for another year.  Good stuff!   :y

Nearly bought mine some new doors but apparently bidding for a spares car is old fashioned as someone must have turned up and made an offer so it got pulled >:(

Sorry mate I dont.Just took a grey cloth interior out of my car and put black leather seats, doorcards,fuse panel,glove box and drivers oddments box from Blackie the breaker in it.
