Ian, very nice.

Our other cars are my modern Mini Cooper 5 door (great piece of kit) and Susie’s Fiat Panda Cross (perfect for narrow, rutted East Devon lanes)

Lovely

I've put plenty of work into plenty of vehicles, but mostly for the sake of keeping them in working order.
The most fun one was probably the 1980 Jeep CJ-5. When I lived in California, I could take the top and doors off in April and leave them off until November. The Jeep was already well set up for off-roading when I got it, so all I had to do was maintain it. It had an AMC 258 I-6 engine, T-98 manual transmission, and Dana 20 transfer case, among other features.
The best driver of the lot (before the BRZ) was a 2001 BMW 325i, and I did make some suspension changes on it. If I'm replacing blown shocks and struts, I might as well upgrade.
I also bought a used 2013 Sprinter. It needs a wee tidy up but is generally in pretty good nick so I've decided to convert it into a camper. I've figured out a layout and will be getting some bits done professionally but the sprinter bed system is leaving me with a bit of a challenge.
