For all you fine folks who have been following the saga, I'm pleased to say I've just called Steph to say the car has passed its MoT (sailed through) and should be back in Kettering, hopefully this weekend.

There's still a couple of bits to do, like fresh oil and filter, a fresh set of plugs and a bit of spit an polish, otherwise Tivi is good for upsetting the great and the good of Northamptonshire's highways and byways.

Regards
Iain

Think it will knock your TV out and save you the reach for the remote! hehe

Of course it is sensible, and on good advice, to run her a lot when I get her back so expect to see her about. However with the impending cold snap she may have to sit back a bit from time to time.

Thanks Ian and team and to all those who have spannered, got oily or provided advice ver the past few months.

I LOVE that colour!

Nice one Stef, I can't wait to hear her.

Now maybe Blipi can have a bit of rest and restoration ?

Oh no, the roof was down but I had to put it up at the pub as it rained. I popped over past Mark's (in same village) before going home.

However, even though the journey was only about 1 mile I should have taken it down. Sorry
