I lost my s**t at branston pickle tbh

Thanks for the words guys! yeah the car is running nicely, I suspect I have either cracked a join in the exhaust when fettling or its got a hole in it as it did seem a bit farty at times. Also suspension is showing wear in the feel of the car, bit of tram lining etc although the spacers have...

If you are all gentle with me...

Oh Hello

Cheers for the comments! I should probably make a spreadsheet to track costs but i think probably about £1100 so far, pretty bargain tastic imo!

So another set of updates! Had a go at carbon wrapping some of the interior bits, turned out much better than expected so will be staying, might clearcoat them for extra bhp: Next plan was to remove the rear wheels to clean up the arches and have a general look at what was going on at...

Knockhill is def on the cards, never had the balls to take my own car on a track before but since this one doesn't owe me a huge amount of cash I'm well up for it!
