Stripped back painted and reundersealed the jacking points

Fitted a new thermostat housing as the old one had cracked.

Few pics from the other day ( excuse the dirt, she's not been washed in a while )

Took a trip up Scotland over the Easter hols for my cousins wed, recorded some milages

235miles to 40 quid at 137.9 which works out at 36.7mpg - 80 miles were A Road blatting, rest was motorway chilling

310miles to 20 quid at 137.9 , 40 quid at 139.9, which works out at 32.6 mpg - 27 miles around Edinburgh city, 235 return leg, driving steady all the way with a couple of full boost a road overtakes, and a 52 mile round trip to work on Monday.

Bits that have been changed recently.

-Cars had another oil and filter change

-new thermostat housing as the old one was leaking slightly (cracked around one of the bolt holes

-replaced lower track control arms, as the ball joints had too much movement, these were fitted with standard bushes. I have the polybushes if required, but they had degraded quite alot, so steering feels tighter without them.

I need to fit the new bootlock and a new drivers door side trim, as the old one was rough

Currently trying to find the source of a rotational noise on the front, next job is to swap out a driveshaft, side by side and check if its a CV joint causing it.

This is an odd for sale ad haha, if it's for sale much longer it will basic be a new car :)
