 Fitted a gurt big blingy Ripspeed 90mm round exhaust tailpipe trim weighs a tonne!Thumbs up

Started paint prep on a pair of new front brake calipers for the Nurburgring on a Budget trip, ordered new tyres

Annoying flat tyre at the weekend, so little 14" T1Rs off, and nice shiny* 15" BBSs with R1Rs on instead. lets hope the temperature doesn’t dip below -9.

Are you from Brissle?

 

 

 

No but I did take the time to learn the langauge when I worked abroad at British Aerospace, FiltonGeek

I’m impressed.  We lived on Filton Av.  Of course, I was not old enough to take on the lingo when I was there or somethin or nothin.Stick Tongue Out

Today, I really don’t know what to do with the 5’sConfused  I could go to Buxton if the frost melts.

Taken advantage of the ‘spring’ like sunshine & given her a good wash & wax!

 paired a blackberry torch to built in bluetooth - sort of worked but wont dial the correct numbers - all done by voice recognition - hilarious to listen to my wife and the 5’s female voice ‘discussing’ the finer points of my mobile number{#emotions_dlg.anbangwall}{#emotions_dlg.anhitwall}

Polished MK1 paintwork on me Mams drive!Smile

Fitted a reverse cut vinyl i got made up in work to the rear window.

 

It reads “No hairdryers are kept in this vehicle overnight”

 Just driven it home after purchasing it !! Wink

Today - cleaned and re-protected mohair roof & collected new front grille (will fit it and deflector on Fri) and went for a drive {#emotions_dlg.cool}

Weekend - bought a wind deflector and tonneau cover

Friday - got all new brake pads and discs and passed MOT! {#emotions_dlg.bigsmile}

 

[:D] nice.

Fitted new gear knob, mats , cleaned it out a bit, ordered racing beat exhaust and , some new wheels / tyres/  recieved  some items from mx5 parts and cleaned up the style bar and windblocker ready to fit, damn this money is burning a hole Cool

Fitted a leather with red stitching handbrake gater that matches the gear lever gaiter to MK1 late last night.

Today I have re-proofed my mohair hood on my MK2 using Renovo Ultra Proofer.

 I did this!!

I must say I’m loving this thread…

took her to the beach Cool

 Geoff - Brilliant!!! Love this idea. Waving

 Today I have mostly been having my bespoke new camel coloured mohair hood made and fitted at Jack Smith trimmers see below.

Normally I fit hoods on other peoples cars for them but I fancied a day off with the professionals

 and at Raymonds prices it is very very hard to go wrong…

Am happy bunnyThumbs up
