Been a while since the last update. I was out of the country during covid and travelled/worked a lot, so the car was left with my dad to use. Now I'm back I'm using it a bit more. Thankfully a lot of the issues that plagued me previously do seem to have been fixed.
Some of the work carried...
Bit of a crap couple of months with this, unfortunately. Needed a new NSF caliper on the day of a funeral, 2 new brake pads alongside that. Asked for Brembo oems, got some cheaper ones instead. Really don't have any luck with mechanics.
New tie track rod end/suspension arm bush on the OSF +...
Did around 1000 miles recently as went down to Goodwood for the FoS. The only mishap was one of the foglights cracked en route via a stone flying up.

Lower handbrake handle...
New led bulb/holder for the back.
New LED reverse bulbs.
Swapped the speaker covers/door handles from the 1.2.
Doesn't look as good with the cup door cards but I would like to change the door cards/rear seats as the pov spec look dreadful.
And also swapped the parcel shelf from my 1.2...
New dipped bulbs fitted -
New blades
Swapped a few of the parts that were wrapped to the ones I had painted in my 1.2 -
And a few of the buttons/trimmed parts -
Long ass aerial swapped to the stubby (nice colour match whoever sprayed the spoiler..!).
Pics finally edited. Few bits done on these pics but I'll list in better detail later on..
