Yesterday I spent the day removing all the nuts off the fittings on the v6's premium bumper that used to be attached to the stainless surround with only one shearing. Today I have cleaned & degreased them and with the bumper laid on a workmate started bonding the fittings back on , quite easy being able to drop the trim onto the fittings to get the position right

Hi Nigel. Took my Avon zv5’s off about two weeks ago, and I have found that they seem to be wearing well. Also very little outside shoulder wear on the nearside front tyre, not as bad as the Goodyear Efficentgrip does. Just fitted today, a new wood and leather steering wheel I was offered at the first Four Ashes Meet earlier this year.

I changed a headlight bulb, and a brake light bulb on mine, then did a bit of K series work on Dawn's white one.

Had the news that my Parking ticket has been successfully overturned by the independent Appeals Service Adjudicator.
One in the eye for PPS car parking people and their arrogant attitude.

I then moved a trailer load of timber and horse manure to the allotment in the sunshine.

Fitted the roof bars and took an old double bed to the tip, then took the rear seat bench out to decraminate the old lad.





Struggled yesterday to T4 Mats tourer after bleeding the clutch, there were a few things lost in translation
