Drove the +4 in to work today, put two new mirrors and mounts on last night as the original ones had started to turn green. Got stainless ones from Heart of England, Blimey they are not cheap.
Taking a mate to pick up his new Lexus RC350 F sport this afternoon, they are a very nice motor car

Yes. Backed out of the garage and had a spring polish. Left the car gleaming in the sun ...and later drove it back in the garage. Does that count!!!  When do you do the rest of the car Neil?

 Only thing I'll polish springs with is some grease / chain lube on cart springs

Had a lovely few hours out in the sunshine yesterday. Drove over to Wolf Towers for a little prototyping & some fine cups of tea with the Cainster and Michelle. Thanks guys.
Have to say with 7000 miles up now, the little car is just in it's element. Not a squeak, rattle or shake anywhere. Wonderful..! Just the chassis mods to aim for next, so that I have a clue as to which way the car will go when it lands over 70mph bump..

I was hoping to get the garage dust off Archie and drive out into the sun...
...until I tried to turn the engine over. Flat battery, well, after about three throws of the key.
Doh!

Quick drive back from body shop in Pershore (paint, not smelly stuff!) where they made a small dent and nasty paint chip disappear from the front wing and also dealt with a small patch of corrosion starting on the rear of the wing edge below the passenger door. Cost an arm and a leg, but they have done a great job.
Now, do I 'shut the stable door' and get some paint protection film fitted?

Nice drive to "the office" yesterday in Nero in cracking weather. I'd post a photo but inspite reducing it several times in size, it refuses to load my photo

They are actually called The Body Shop, based on the industrial estate by the railway station.
As a matter of interest, they do work for the Halfords sponsored Touring Cars, the guy was a bit upset that one of the cars he had prepared for this season was written off testing in Spain last week and he was having to start all over again on a new body shell.
