 Took the Monaro to the Enfield Paegent today
Ended up meeting the Vauxhall exec who project managed not only the bringing in of Monaros to the UK, but also the Lotus Carlton project
Some interesting discusions
And, as usual, some helmets that needed to be shown on the way home

A water filter is a revelation, until the media gets saturated, then you wish you'd just paid someone else to do it...but where's the satisfaction in that?

That's alright; I failed to do the welding on the MGTF that was dropped off last week.

Hardwired dashcam and phone chargers in Mavis. Broke some trim. Repaired it. Washed it. Watched it get persisted down on.

In my case I did try. In fact I spent about an hour - mainly because the instructions were full on Chinglish. And yes, I did need the instructions because they were German, hence overly complicated.  And turns out Euroshite sent me the wrong ones, but as they arrived a few months back, refuse to take them back.

Serves you right for buying cheap shite. I pay for the Bosch ones that have the correct fitment out of the box. Expensive, but much less hassle.
