That is an awesome list. May I ask what ballpark the total bill was including BMR's time. I cannot find a manual version of the car I want and have been mulling this over as a way forward.

I know what you mean in regards to finding the car you want. I’ll put a breakdown together and ping you the details.
(I had various bits done by BMR at the same time so need to work out what’s what.)

Hi, apologies for the delay - total cost including labour was £2508.39.... breakdown as attached. I chose to have the flywheel lightened and also opted for a short shift lever.
