Finished welding on inner rear left arch. Looks great.  :D

Tomorrow I have to transport two horses  from nearby Freiburg to Lahr. Thinking about using a trailer.  ;D

Said a sad goodbye to the TD Estate, but the good news is the guy has two Omegas and as mine is in superb condition, he is going to keep this one and sell his other Estate, so hopefully it will cover some more miles yet. He said he is member here, but I didn't catch his username. A sad day for me having owned it for 18 years. I could have sold it ten times over from the Gumtree ad, so I clearly underpriced it. :y

I'll say it again, even though somebody will shout at me again, but it remains a lot of car for the money, so will sell at prices higher than we think, assuming its tidy and has long MOT

Hi Gollum

30 mls from Freiburg to Lahr, so I decided to use my old winter- caravan. Drives perfect with 1700 kg on the hook.

Fixed the non working sunroof by fitting a fuse in the appropriate fuse holder.  ::)
That's my grafting done for today.  :D
