Just out of interest...what is the purpose of the fan under the passenger side front wing that ducts into the fusebox near the battery?

Now that's spooky as that was the last wing that I removed. The top of the wing rotted out around the aerial hole so I fitted new ones and then had them sprayed.  :y

That's cos you're an old bugger too!  ;) ;)

Funnily enough, both of mine were rotted out too. I spotted a couple of new-ish replacement wings on a car on a scrap yard in Dunfermline (probably long since built on  :-\) so bought them. They didn't look too bad after a couple of rattle cans  ;) ;) ;)
