I also received a nice letter from the DVLA today. Tax is up at the end of the month. :(
Cya £220.

I hopefully plan to give this it's winter detail tomorrow/Sunday, dependant on weather.
 
Coops, the temptation is always there. I have to keep resisting ;). Don't want to ruin it. OEM+

Servicing and the Mounts (for Christmas) will do me for the year I think. See what next year brings ;).

They will probably go for a shower together after WORKIN DER CARS N' GUNZ, PUMP THAT JACK.. OHH I'VE GOT OIL ON MY BICEPS x
Down to a tee... Although, it's spelt "Penis".
 
Pre Winter Detail

Gave the car it's pre-winter detail today. Probably won't wash it again now until next year.

Products used (minus the usual foaming etc):
- AF Tripple (impressed with it, for a hand product)
- Z2 x2 layers
- Dodo Banana Armour x2 layers (just so that it looks decent for a few days ;))

So, it started the day like this:

Wasn't too dirty tbf. Properly covered in tar though...

After a layer of Tripple. Impressed with how it worked and was easy to use:

I was having a right battle all day with spiders. Seriously. My car was covered in them!! Literally crawling all over. Kept blowing onto the car. My dad's car was covered in them too.

Pre-Winter Detail - 7/10/12 by Harpham y0, on Flickr

:)
 
Pain in the arse. The ones coming onto mine we're all baby spiders. Literally cobwebs we're flying all over the place and they kept landing on mine & dad's cars. The amount that flew into my face too was doing my nut in. lol
I opened a can of "whoop-ass" on them all.

I still can't believe how well this car looks considering how sorry it looked when it came in for belts. It really is a credit to you mate.
 
Cheers Mick. Appreciate that. Especially seeing as you saw it in it's original state. It's come such a long way since January!

I may be a mechanical r****d, but yeah, I will make this car look mint!! (Ill leave the mechanical side of things to you, with the occasional input from Gray Motorsport :rasp:)


In other news, I think I have a slow puncture on one of my rear tyres, FFS!! I should also have a little goody coming early next week ;).

  Lots of Scrap...
looks blummin lovely, i can honestly say this is the nicest phase 1 i know of/seen in the metal :)
 
Cheers guys. Much appreciated!! :)

Coops, we need to sort a photo session out with the RB before mine gets too dirty (not being washed until next year now).


Hopefully will go full anal on the paintwork next year and actually give it a proper detail, without my DA breaking lol.
 
Just took delivery of this...

Thanks Jamie!! :)
Haterz gon' hate and all that, but I used to have one on my old Ph2 Flamer, which I loved, so when this came up for sale, I just had to have it. Don't think it looks as good on a Ph1, but meh, RACE CAR!!
I can see how these things cannot be stolen on a Ph1 though. Had to use a brace just to get it in LOL.
(I've just realised too that as soon as I sort my bumper stickers out, i'm going to have to remove this, ffs!!)

Easy to remove, long bar through the hole and twist.

Also been speaking with Syn0b. As he wants some too, I've cut you're but they're at Kurts, somewhere...Sy is going to make me a card template of the bumper bits to use so that they're perfect.
 
Winter Spec Mode

So, winter mode is officially in action. Had my last real outing on the bike for the year this morning, so my rear seats have gone back in. Also took off the flowers from the rear view mirror.

Hooray for rear seats.

Should make the rear sit properly/a little lower now.

Hopefully, it'll be fine over the winter period. Sym0n should be pulling his finger out this week and looking at getting hold of the servicing bits that we need.
It's already looking dirty :(...

Paul, seriously... Don't!

I know that one day Kirsty and I are gonna get married on top of a mountain, and there's going to be flutes playing and trombones, flowers and garlands of fresh herbs. And we will dance till the sun rises. And then our children will form a family band. And we will tour the countryside and you won't be invited.
 
If you look at the photo that I took at CSS of Stu and my car, you'll see the difference the bumper inserts make.

FLOL. Don't worry. No more Ph2 parts will be going near the car. Does this mean that I can have an invite? ;)
Aesthetic wise, this car is pretty much how I want it to be, minus a few finishing touches that ill sort next year. Oh and some major anal detailing work.
I won't rest until it's the cleanest Sunflower and Ph1 around!!
