bugger off you lot ! :)

Found some rust !......sunroof drain holes, all cleaned to metal (dremmel & stone), treated and painted.
Bumper "dings" filled and painted, stone chips done, insides washed down (by the new owner) and the marks rubbed off with compound then polished.

MoT 3pm tomorrow , just need to adjust the handbrake this afternoon.

We all have one ;) Anyway, the car is going to a girl so it needs to look girly :)

Nothing serious on the sunroof rust then Alasdair...

All the best with the MOT [-o< I'm sure it'll just be a formality... Just give it a good ragging to the MOT station to get the cat nice and hot and drive out any accumulated clag ;)

Naturally... And could it also incorporate twin CT turbos as well as a 4x4 drivetrain from (preferably) a BX or a 405?

An apple on the tailgate, and a pen on both the rear bumper and bonnet surely?
