Yeah theres 2 in my local Vauxhall dealers that look like they're Jamaica yellow, and there's a Corsa C sxi withe the irmscher chin spoiler and skirts driving about locally that also looks to be jamaica yellow. I keep getting ideas in my head to get one and paint the bottom half dark grey to do a Nova SR type rep

Well did some more to the battery try today, think it's ready by midweek for bat to go back in.

Batteries back in, Fuel pipes all sorted, air filter on, 1/4 choke!.... starts first time one small turn! love they old beaut!

So i popped it in for an MOT tonight, i hope it passes no issues, should do "fingers crossed" and then tax it, place the missis on the insure so we can use them both to shows etc.

Sailed through its mot again, need to replace the wiper blades though, Karl the mechanic said one's worn, Ive not used them in 8 month's? no wonder one's on it's way out..

Tax it tomo, then insure the missis on it.
