She is a beauty!  Been in love with her since the first Lakes meet!

The bodyshop sorted out a patch of rust on the roof, the wheel arches sorted as starting to go, one of the wings had paint peeling off and the tailgate repaired.  We know that its not a miracle rust cure but will hopefully keep her going for a good bit longer.
I'm really pleased with the spraying and I'm thinking about getting the bonnet resprayed as it's a slightly different shade from a previous repair.

Better upgarde i think i must say they have done a great job wish i would of taken my estate to them to be done..... I did like the look of the motor with the azv a on but i know bob said it went through tyres and they were very soft alloy.....Your t-shirt on the lake pic is almost the same colour as your new motor.  ;D ;D  Hope to have mine sorted soon so i can pop up some pics but we will see.  Was hoping to come to the wales meet but i don't think i can make it which is a bit of a gutter as i have made a few of the checster meets and always had a good few hours chating with other members.

Megane was a hire car as lent my mig (pictured) to Jimbob for the weekend as his was off the road.
Bloke did a fab job, let me know if you want his number, I'd recommend him.
Pity you can't make it at the weekend but there's sure to be others.

Yes, it also adds dimension to those pictured whom I’ve had the privilege of communicating with through this forum.

One can get a skewed perspective of people when communication is by way of written word only.

I really must get to a meet (easier said than done) and add realism to my association with the forum membership.



As a matter of fact when I look at it again, I feel quite humble for some strange reason.
