i can get the tyres ok should be next day. quite cheap price for r888s as well luckily. springs will probably be alright but may try and get some anyway. typically i get paid just after next weekend and not before it or id have been sorted.

got some stick on number plates made up. one is just white, the other is reflective. probably fit the white one.







think it wants to sit about there. will give the car a clean and stick on later.

yeah hopefully. wouldn't matter so much but i drive it a lot so kinda need to avoid them as much as possible pmsl. I'm too old to get pulled over all the time.

oh in other news, non car related, I'm still doing my diet type affair. started at 17 stone 4 in february, hoping i can do the last bit and get down into 12 stone category before totb next weekend. may make car faster......

Had to dig about the wiring to find the horn bits, found and wired it up.

It works



Then did something that's been needing done for ages





Had beaded ends put on boost pipes and cooler to stop pipes slipping off as it happens occasionally.





Fitted the stick on plate. Might grow on me tbh.

Took a trip on airfield before coming home. Pretty much limiter of 5th gear.

I personally didn't think the plate on bumper looked that that bad.. And congrats on weight loss if it wasn't a joke

No not a joke I do a crap update on facecrack every week some will have seen it. The plate was badly fitted on bumper and I was never that happy with it although it never bothered me much. Looks a bit more symmetrical I reckon now.

I'm just doing the basic methods of exercise and eating healthier. Working well for me so far. I think I weigh about 30kg lighter than when I started. Should make car faster pmsl
