So off we went to Liverpool airport at 6:30am to catch a sleazyjet flight to Belfast.

RallyJ met us at the airport, really nice bloke! Gave us a whistle stop tour of Belfast then we sorted the paperwork.

off to the port for the Stena line back to Stranraer.

Parked up then time to chill out for a couple of hours for the next leg of the trip.

The weather was absolutely terrible but the car performed faultlessly!

Managed to get a quick crappy iPhone shot while it stopped raining for 5 min

230 miles later and the car is home :)
Needs a damn good clean & the bodywork needs some attention but mechanically it seems tip top!

Maybe just the light in the photos but it looks really light/flat paint, other sunflowers look a lot deeper yellow.

Nothing better than driving a new car home!

Doesn't help that we keep being subjected to Craig's factory fresh stunner ;)

I know I'm going to hell but these arrived in the post.

Not 100% sure I'm gonna fit them but they only cost me £14 & it's an easy swap back.

Bought some Auto Finesse trim restorer the other day so thought I'd give it a go.
