Er Bump... Looking good Rich.
Yeah those coilovers are 5 years old this year. Done the best part of 50k I reckon now. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to change them.
Glad the mileage is better. Although it was a 45 litre tank - I used to fill up from the red with £50 of V-Power. My record was 400 miles to a tank.
I spy arch liners!

Looking good, one thing though, the bay looks 'untidy', it would be good if you could hide some of the wire/pipes especially around the right hand side of the bay. A CC'd rocker cover would be ace too (or contrasting)

Cheers The bay is the plan of attack for the next few months - I quite like the OEM look of the standard colours on the engine now though so will probably leave that. I will see what I can do with the wiring, but I'm not going to get all sCeNe and start hiding wiring in the inner arches etc.
EML came on last night over a bump so that now needs investigating too - seems to drive fine, but revs itself up to 2K when your first start it, then settles back down to idle fine. God knows. Will investigate tomorrow!
Phil -arch liners have been in for ages now mate! Will see if I can squeeze a bit more juice in the tank next time and go for a record run lol.

Yeah, I don't mean like a full ScEnE smoothed bay, just tidy it up, route wire all together etc

Yeh will see what I can do - it's pretty tidy for an XE conversion anyway tbf, but I need to do some work with re-routing the loom where it comes into the bay anyway as it doesn't fit where I want to put the airbox
