Alright mate. Nice to see her back on the road. You relocated the fuel pump then? I can't work out what's going on ;)

I'm just gonna use it until November then get it back on the road again in April. The breadvan will be used for lugging my garage equipment, leaving at the roadside on nights out in town and for transporting more than 2 people. My weekday daily is my works van anyways :)

No mate, I took it off to get to the brake lines but the end snapped off because the jubilee clip was rusted, so I had to mod it and put it back on.
