great to see these updates. The Renault letter is fab. As I said in the pm, happy to help with parts and stuff on my US travels. Good luck with the shipping.

Had a great day at Goodwood Revival. My (somewhat better off than me) friend had a Lola T70 and a Cobra racing. Lola was leading its race on Saturday but ran out of fuel just before the end of the race. Cobra fought its way up to fourth on Sunday. My daughter got a seat in the Lola though. I...

Back to Monaco Blue, sorry…

That’s impressive! My Alpina: Tried to do some other cars and it kept the same alpina on screen and on the box, despite prompting 3 times to change them. That’s the brilliance and limitations of AI right now!

Can you generate one of those images for my car? Mondial blue and inferno orange around the edges! Also, a pleasure to make your acquaintance, you fat wanker. NB: I’m a gradually expanding wanker myself.

Like everything I do with cars, this mini job hasn’t gone 100% to plan… I fitted the Sabelt steering wheel and QR, pretty straightforward, disconnect the battery, wait a bit, unclip the airbag etc. my large torx bolt on the steering rack wasn’t a T40, but a T45, other than that ok. But when I...

Thanks for that clarification- The trouble now is I’ll have to look out my ancient car mags to see what the hell I did read! Like you say, great seats though.

Love it! Will be following your progress. One random thing I remember about the williams from back in the 90’s was that the development team reckoned the seats were worth time over a particular road, because of how much better they held you in place than the Clio 16v seats. You probably all...
