Not sure what the timeline is on this but I guess most of this was some time ago, good to put it altogether here though.. Looks loads better from when you got it.  :cool:

Yeah, I'm sure a lot of it's in the wrong order, but nothing's really changed much since about November last year.

Hopefully there will be some more chronologically accurate updates as they occur soon.

What happened to that interior? Could have got yourself a bargain!

I didn't fancy the trip to Brum really...

Plus, I love my morse beige cloth now.  :laugh:

I've decided to go OAP+ on the interior.

Cheers buddy.

Roof box does kill it, it takes it down to about 40mpg.  :sick:

That's the way it looks when it's loaded for bear on it's way to center parcs with the missus and the dog, I don't usually keep the box on.

It looks better in these pics than it does in real life sadly.


looks good mate - keep at it

40mpg is still good  :shocked: :cool: mines nowhere near that lol

Tartan cloth, wooden beads, sunvisor and seatback pouches?

That's the one!

I've got the tartan in beige to do the headlining with.

Not sure on the wooden beads... although it could work.  :grin:

I've got some boiled sweets too.

I'm fed up of looking at the shocking scuffs and gouges all over the bumpers now.

I parked my car between two concrete planters and someone reversed out on full lock without looking and scratched it all up.

So... I'm after a set of textured bumpers.

I'm going to back to black them right up and then give it another whack with the lowering stick, some gold fleur de lis vinyls to cover up the rust and the raised lacquer patches ( :sick: ) and then when the garage is clear it will be going satin white.

If you spot any bumpers, let me know. :cool:

Good luck with the bumpers, front is easy but did they make them on estates  :undecided:

Took me ages to find a set for mine when I was looking.
