    With the weather being back to normal rubbish up here i haven't been able to anything to the Antibes, but took the cover off just now to swap the offside headlight

    Cover put back on soon after as its spitting with rain again :-(

    The coating inside has flaked off and would most likely have failed mot on beam pattern.

    Will be swapping the old indicator over next time i get a chance

    Would like to have detailed it thoroughly but hadn't got a chance with the weather

    Feeling like an expectant father

    New wheel cylinder on this morning and she passed!

    Having had a fairly sunny morning, bizarrely got caught in a hail shower going down to the garage

    Rear shocks are gubbed so looks like i'll be fitting the gmax springs and shocks that i have for it

    A full interior shampoo is one of the next jobs. Hopefully get the carpet back to maximum garishness

    Never ever upgrade and piss about with this car, you will never lose money on it.
