That's the spirit.  :y To avoid the light give it plenty with the right.  ;) :y

I dont think it did it any good having the car off the road a few months , first long run since  :y Its certainly not short of power  :)

Removed the LSD and poly donut bushes and got the tracking done, all ready for a trip to Glouster tomorrow  :)

I came across mine the other day, still unopened from when I picked them up from TB's house.  ::)

Not sure if I'll ever get around to fitting them, for no other reason apart from I'm just not sure if I'll like them or not.  :-\  Might give them a trial in the summer ...... says he again for about the fourth year running.  ::) ;D

The car is a lot better for them, not harsh at all, just more composed  :y

Cheers for that Gav, nice to know. :y You've inspired me to fit them ........ one day.  :y

Get them done asap ya lazy git  ;D

Sunday (and many days before that, to be fair), I did this. Does it count as a car yet?

No, but it's more like a car than it used to be... Only another few years and it might have an engine and rear axle :-X :P ::)

Even once started progress was a bit slow due to everything being a bit of a pain in the arris, oh and waiting on the odd part, and taking things to be powder coated..

I think technically a car should be capable of having wheels fitted... but as LD says, it's definitely progress :y So as the wheels are probably in the same building, I think we can let that technicality slide ;D

Started to swap the wood trim for MV6 trim on the project tonight (have them from the old 2.6 - MV6 silver trims on Elite Leather door cards), Just got the N/S to do as it's too dark to do them now but done the offside and centre console trims.  :)
