Start and complete the 1.1 to 1.3 motronic swap.
Complete and fit the 2.8 build, perhaps then I will get some use out of the Road tax.

Better pray ECP pull their finger out at sort out their stock. I was told that they are now the UK agents for bilsteins, could I find them when I replaced every suspension part on the touring?
