      What an awesome car .

      Use Castrol SRF brake fluid - it's expensive, but fluid boiling problems disappear......

            Looking good Steve. Thought you'd been quiet over on NL lately.

            The NZ trip isn't permanent then? Not tempted to sell the Beastie?

              yeah the car has taken a bit of a backseat for a while, just been getting out on the bike/snowboard plenty!

              we've not set a time frame on it, but at least a few years or so before the whole settling down thing

              don't think i could really bring myself to sell it to be fair!!! laid up insurance is only 100 quid for the year and mate does me a good deal at his fairly mega storage facility. Also Grace wouldn't want me to sell either, she's dying for a few laps in it at the Ring some day :smokin:

              nice to have it there to come back to or potentially export, who knows!!!

                Got the bumper back from paint yesterday so fitted it up, same time i fitted brand new......

                - csl washer bottle
                - bumper seal
                - relocated the horns to the bumper
                - extended the OE horn loom
                - bumper dampers (any 2nd hand ones i saw the adjusters were seized so had to go brand new)
                - side grill
                - duct to the airbox

                spent a while adjusting and getting the panel gaps right, some people fit the bumper too tight to the car when there should be that slight gap (5mm or so)

                very very happy :smokin:
