Actually the luggage in this picture has tools and belts and bits and bobs. Just in case. I haven’t started packing yet!
-
Nice to have a job again!
-
Hurrah! WD40 and a LOT of wiggling and it's all good! I also found out that WD40 brings your bumpers up to an amazing shine!

If I fail to get the lock open what are my options?
-
I’ll give that a go! before I get the hammer out
-
I’ve tried all the ways. I have another key at home. I’ll try that. it was a little sticky sometimes. Dam I wish I’d changed it!
-
Well that didn’t last long. The boot won’t unlock! obviously the day before I go on away for the weekend.

It's excellent quality with a mirror and a hook and a light. The app is great too you can record video and take pictures.

I got to use my new toy to have a look around too! https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01NBFTAHE/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Yes. it had snapped and both halves were in the bottom of the door. i bent the end of the biggest bit to fit into the original hole. the whole mechanism can be taken out of the door after removing the door card.

I spent the day doing a proper job of fitting the gearbox cover with new seals and aluminium duct tape. I then turned my attention towards the door catch that has always allowed the door fly open occasionally. I found that the spring had broken, but managed to make the remains of it fit again with a bit of bending. Job done! i then realised that for the first time since I’ve had him, everything works! I wonder how long that will last!

This is exactly what i wanted to hear! Stand by Streatham!
-
It's a bit juddery if i pull off slowly. I've convinced myself it's just the clutch 'bedding in' I really hope i haven't bought a duff one!
-
Pretty sure that was the deal?
-
I’ve a weekend in Weymouth coming up. That’s way past Kew!
-
I am honestly blown away by how much work you have put into this. I'm stunned. I can't say thank you enough!
-
Wooooo Hooooo! What a difference! It's like a new car. I forgot to use 2nd a couple of times as i've not had it for so long! Pete. You are a star! Thank you so much. Beer time now!
-
I’ll come back to it. I haven’t any more oil anyway. Just fitting. The seats and it’ll be test time!
-
I’ve given up and put 1.8 ltr in through the top
-
I’m stuck on getting the level/filler plug out. Of all things!
-
It’s going well!
-
So much easier with the seats and gearbox out
-
I’ve ordered this stuff. https://www.screwfix.com/p/no-nonsense-heavy-duty-degreaser-5ltr/88668?_requestid=613306

You’re a star!

I've taken advantage of the space and fitted a new lower dash panel. I'm very happy with the results. Much easier without the gearbox. Hope it doesn't get in the way too much when i fit the box again. I've also ordered a parts cleaner because Pete had one . 😂😂😂😂
