Sold mine this morning, well one of them anyway. :(

Didn't really want to but needed the space for the next phase in my plans for the future...

The little red car is now on the ferry at Holyhead, on it's way to a new life in Ireland. I shall miss it but there wasn't anything left for me to do on it really, hopefully it will now be getting used a bit more than it was.

That's a shame, awesome car. Did you get what you expected back from it?

Drove 300 miles back from sunny North Wales to sunny Essex . Made a little detour to go via Llanberis and Pen y Pass to start with as the roads were so dry . The run through the mountains on the A5 was spectacular .

Looking good. What did you use to clean up the supecharger Les?
Mine needs brightening up a bit.

Hello, I cleaned it with alloy wheel cleaner and stiff brush, then painted it with high temp alloy paint; 3 light coats then heated it with the wife’s hair drier...I masked the surrounding area with shrinkrap. I think it turned out well. ;)

I remember chuckling to myself at a guy driving at night with his roof down, I could understand in places like the states where the temperature is still high at night; but last night on the way home from work, I did the same thing. It was an enjoyable drive, a different driving experience again. I wound the heater up full and wahay! Toasty warm...:geek:
