I am sure the chancellor of the exchequer is very pleased too.
probably a lot cheaper last time you taxed your GTA.
Well done.

no idea what it cost ...will have a look at the disk ...Don't pay attention to those sort of bills as they have to be paid whatever they cost ..

Now ....65 quid to get into a safari park and look at a few mangy lions etc :lol: But ...it was worth it for this pic alone :lol: 8) 8)

Shakedown issues continue .....starter is a bit lazy when car hot and wouldn't crank ,I have a spare so will swap out .Battery seems OK but might just put a new one on for good measure .Need to check alt wiring again as still getting warning light over bumps .

right now ,sit down but I've been titivating :shock:
Picked out a few choice bits and got out the detailing kit :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
The interior has scrubbed up quite well .It needs a few bits but I think I have a box somewhere with pedal cover etc .Popped in my custom steering wheel boss and wheel ( blast from the past ) Mint A/C scuttle cover ,I need a cleaner boot liner .
Wheel set blasted and going for powdercoat and sticky rubber .Car pulls very well now it's had a few miles and it's good to get back into one that I own ...means I can thrash it a bit more :evil:

Looking good, it does make a difference when you give it a clean and some love.

This GTA went and stopped very well when Lee took me out in it this week. You need a spare front wheel (think I gave you one ahem pardon the expression) a while back, jack and brace. Deep polish and you will have a very nice GTA on your hands. Enjoy the blasting 8)

Filled the tank to the brim as well ....It's all coming out on Sat but no filters in stock till next week .Hey-ho thought it was all going too well :lol:

Oh and just checked the box of bits, no pedal covers left! Have a word with the southern mafia if he turns up. Don't expect a price though until you have felt it installed it and love the look of it, then he will hit you with one miiiilllliooonn pounds please Mr Clee :roll: :lol:

Mate they were bad, that bad and cheap I had never heard of them! In fact they are that obscure I can't remember what the bloody things were called. Humour me again?

I'm suprised you'd never heard of them ....thought I had a dodgy damper but then realised you were walking back to your rep-mobile .
