Spend over 2 months earlier in the year car-less whilst it had issues with the gearbox.
Hopefully what it's in for now will bring the loose ends together in the car until summer.
On the upside it sort of passed its MOT Wednesday morning, so that's one less thing to worry about!
Yes no issues last year with it passing although this year it failed the emissions (well I still got a pass, but the emissions were well over the 'pass rate') but the MOT tester put it down to a faulty lambda sensor rather than the CAT.
You rely on having a car until you don't have one for a few days!
Dropped the Cup off to Mike at MWM on Wednesday night for a few bits to be done, it's reminded me of the feeling of being a kid at Xmas waiting for Xmas morning lol
Itching to get the car back now, thankfully I think I got all...
That should get you -
Very clean PH1 or a slightly higher mileage 172 cup IMO.

All depends on your budget?
Ph1 or Ph2 cup for raw fun cars, 182 with cup packs for a bit of comfort or if your pockets are a little deeper a Trophy for fancy seats and Suspension.

Personally don't use wax, more of a sealant user having a Silver car I like the clinical finish they offer.
My staple is FK1000p with a weekly spritz of FK425 on top.
Also have Jeffs Acrylic trigger and have just placed an order for some AF tough coat which I'm hoping is going to be nice and...
Would love my car going over by KDS but I would have to take out a loan the same size as a small country to be able to afford it.
His work always looks amazing.
I use Bimarcos in my daily driver, have done long journeys (300+ miles) and stepped out if the car without any back or backside pain.
In all, GREAT seats, very supportive as well.
Tyres are what keep you on the road, you should AWAYS buy the best you can afford.
I had budgets in the car when I bought it and replaced them straight away with PE2's.
Night and day.
Seems daft, you have the Vee for those few nice days a year and the 1.2 for daily sensible car.
Surely having a 197 is going to cost you more to run, tax, insure. Driving a 197 daily is going to take away 'that feeling' when you unwrap the Vee for a drive out.
Personally would stick with...
