UPDATE: 11-Mar

Hiiii

Weather seriously couldn't have been better today, and was a great help for me to get on and do all the little things that were still outstanding.

After last week's misfire curing in the pissing rain. Had to sort out the oil cooler and put a new one. Spent some time fannying about rolling underneath the car, but got it done I could finally get a bit of heat going around the engine! Yeeeees!

Next up was putting it all back together, including the rain-tray, washer bottle, bonnet, headlamps, battery tray, various bungs/caps, manifold gasket etc etc. Was a bit of a pain in the arse, but got there after an hour or so.

Got the car out, and finally got stuck into scrubbing some of that dirt off that's been stuck on there since February . Then put it in the sun to dry. Reminded me why I love this colour so much









Set the new oil cooler where I wanted it and checked the coolant temp sensor was ok (was leaking a little). Put a numberplate on so that I could drive it back from getting the exhaust done.



Engiiiiiiiiiine:



Then took it for a test drive Didn't take it far... About half a mile, fuck me it made some noise and it was hitting the floor too All in great fun though! Can't wait to really give it some shit when it's done! Woop!

It depends on who's making the exhaust. Maybe he is having a decent one made up...
