Flew through the MOT with some pas fluid needed, only issue I have remaining is the f*cking bonnet cable, I can't get it run, so I can't close the bonnet up properly otherwise I wont be able to open it.Taxed/Insured at end of month, then vroooooooom. Going to polish the 17" alloys and see how they look, as now the car has settled back to normal ride height and they;re clean it looks OK. ________________________________________ cress87 wrote: I'm stopped for speeding on a daily basis but now the police are aware that I live for the 306 they dare not interfere, just sit in their cars quaking as I drive past. |

It's parked outside my work right now.To be honest, it's been so cold, and I've been moving.. so I haven'd had the time or energy to finish it off. It's still missing a sideskirt (just needs to be fitted) - Bonnet needs to be adjusted, inside is filthy, outside is filthy. After that it needs the machine polishing to be done so we can pop decals on, then it#s pretty much there. Oh and the magnex is f*cked, so it sounds absolutely terrible, like metal rattling on metal. I am glad to have it back though. ________________________________________ cress87 wrote: I'm stopped for speeding on a daily basis but now the police are aware that I live for the 306 they dare not interfere, just sit in their cars quaking as I drive past. |

It's on some cyclones at the moment, I don't have spare cash for wheels right now ![]() I do have the old 17" wheels which I need to refurb and sell. Mine's just a straight through pipe Bennn, it's the backbox that's f*cked. ________________________________________ cress87 wrote: I'm stopped for speeding on a daily basis but now the police are aware that I live for the 306 they dare not interfere, just sit in their cars quaking as I drive past. |
