Thanks,

Did you go last night to the run?

Engine ran absolutely spot on all night, everything working as it should. I tried taking it easy ish just as I didn't want to give it death on the first day of driving but I couldn't resist half the time!

Seems to be burning oil very slightly but that maybe just the nature of the charger, and I seem to be loosing a very small amount of water.

Other than that, she's a good'n! Wondering when the rolling road day is now that I said I might make!

Ah no, it was a dragon green mk3.

Haldex is certainly on the cards. As is MASSIVE long term plans. My aim is to never get rid of the car and garage it for a while, but I don't think I could leave it as it is if I were to ever leave it in a garage haha

That's what i was thinking! around 18ish at a guess!

Lovely car though, so well worth the fuel costs!
