Did it look like it was in a hurry, and have the wheelbarrow attachments?

I did fly past a dwardling red PFL MV6 earlier....

Completed a coolant flush and change. I followed the guides and I'm pleased I can see nice red stuff in the header tank  ;D

Feed the Bullet's crazy coolant appetite.

Yesterday, tinkled about with TBE, and at last sorted out a local's member's Signum NCDC, after a certain piece of shite code reader had made a mess of coding the radio.

Monday, enabled cruise for young Mr Wyatt.

This weekend, pull out finger and get an MP3 input on that NCDC in TBE  :-[

Yes, way too hard. I very nearly didn't have the strength in my fingers to snap it together either. :(

Don't suppose you can recall how much it was (presumably just the 3 button fob case and button pad?)

I bought one for my old 2.5 cdx years ago. Complete fob was £35 iirc. But only need the case, obviously.

Had a rummage through my ebay history, different link but same seller...
