    Well its all back together and road tested. Brings a smile to my face! Managed to sort my ****e gears aswell. Worn bushes wasnt helping my cause with the adjustment.

    Just wish this indecisive weather would sod off. Meant to be off out for a proper drive tomorrow. But im too scared to take it out in the rain. Yes im a nancy!

    Sod it. I took it out and I gave it some stick. Rain stayed away. Was great fun. In the convoy was an Audi tt 225 quattro, 1989 porker 911 carrera, and a 500+ bhp EVO. saw off the Audi and the porker.

    Was such a laugh. Did about 70miles. Some awesome roads round these parts. Will get some pics up.
