[Elite Pete]

Has just been delivered and I will post some pics up when i've cleaned the filthy beastie.

Have a guess who didnt sleep much last night, I was like a kid on Christmas Eve

[TheBoy]

Hope you have more luck than I've had with TB2....

You supposed to be doing the oil on the green one, not cleaning the blue one

If her indoors sees the state of the blue one I wont be able to sit down for a week

Oil change done now

[PaulW]

tbh the state of the blue one (at the moment) doesn't look too bad... aslong as you can read german  

the rattly noises are worrying though...  Still, not like an AR35 will cost the earth really!

TOO late!  



I had the whitebalance set wrong though on the camera, so its all tinted blue

I still think the mini-facelift looks better than the facelift.

Run for cover

[PaulW]

Nah I agree with you  Only thing I prefer from the Facelift to the Pre, is the leather interior and thats it

I agree, from front it does look better imho

Busy day today

Went to the otherside of Chester to remove the second hand box which was quite easy as the engine had already been removed. I thought I was going to die when I carried the box complete with torque convertor from the car to the rear of the house on my own (about 60ft ) then gave it a good clean up ready for the strip down to replace the thrust washers, filter and gaskets. I then started to strip the Elite ready for the box which I hope will go in next Sunday (finger crossed). Its now time for a nice bath and a couple of beers

[Dazzler]

Well done Pete, a good days work mate Did you remember to check for a squirter by chance :-/
