Tourer:
- fitted chrome tie down holders in rear.
- replaced a broken skull cap with a bullet, (to match the other side). Done 3 times, as each time I fitted it, the left/right action failed to work, even though it worked fine off the car, when tested.😡
- replaced drivers door seal.

Saloon:
- replaced the saggy bonnet soundproofing.

Other:
- fixed the broken skullcap.

Nice bucket...paintwork not too shabby either.😄
Reflections like that are something us "silver" owners can only dream of, well me anyway.😥
Gave mine a quick scrub this evening, even the tail pipes.
But alas...no helpers.😕

That's both of my girls who like helping me out whenever I'm getting dirty, the only thing I can't let them do is wash the car as they use the wheel mit on the panels

Lovely work, Jim.

I took the flip key apart which the car came with, and put the innards into a proper key again. Didn't like the flip key at all.
