Well came to refit the front brakes roday and guess what the tapped out front caliper aint worth S**T, so I need a new/second hand one. Cheer myself up I thought I would put on my freshly refurbed wheels and drop it off the stands to settle a bit, I know it needs driving for that but hey I needed a perk! Looks stunning, even in the multicolours that it is in, cannot wait. Just need:

Front caliper and bleed system.
Refit exhaust and tighten prop shaft.
4X tyres, Toyo TS-R1's 205/50/15.
Fill dent in drivers side.
MOT.
Fit smoked lights which are in my garage!
Refit interior and thats it, all small jobs really.
Oh and respray, something forgot!

Regards a quite happy Mark.

It does, wont stop if it did go, but looks so much closer to being ready if you know what I mean?
