changed the oil and filter, gave her some new sparking plugs and some more screenwash.

Then went for a drive, overheated it stuck in traffic, then went for a very interesting and fun drive down some snow covered country lanes, and took some pretty cool photos.

Ohhh how i love having a decent metal lathe at work.

Made this to compliment my recently fitted Megajolt (excuse the blurry cam phone pic).

[mars red mike]

Finally got a working keyboard so I can post again yay Anyway here is what I did Boxing Day



Nice shiney alloy rad and silicone hoses from Mini Spares. I didnt need a new rad but I saw this and just had to have it. I think I must have been a Magpie in a former life as any shiny engine bay parts and I just got to have them. Also fixed my strobe light effect passenger sidelight, and gave the engine bay a good clean.
