Cars not really had much done and changing a battery is nothing exciting lol, will take pictures anyway. Will try get my Ppd d pillar trims fitted and then when the car's all detailed I'll fit my torpedo badges.

Got a busy January though as we're moving out of our flat at the end of January so I doubt there will be much progress or money spent from now until the end of January.

I'm thinking of buying a ppd boot or just changing the plinth to the ppd embossed rover plinth.

Most of my car is now PPD'd but I like the slightly later boot plinth better then the PPD one so mine is staying how it is. I like how you can see the Rover badge fon the back as oppose to being on the actual boot lid.

On reflection I'm not gonna source a ppd bootlid as I actually don't like the rover badge on it lol, would just buy the embossed plinth and swap between mine and the ppd one. I need a new badge for mine as it's badly faded

You should keep it. Sell drugs or something to make the difference for a deposit. Don't sell the car.

Haha, I don't need to sell it but it's the sensible option really.

Got my pictures uploaded onto Photobucket now via my dads computer since that's us moved back here now.

The Rover needed a jack pad so I bought 2 from Greeners which are now awaiting fitting, I'm hoping to insure and tax it next week.

Wee picture of the original V5 since I could edit it
