What have you done to your car today......
Discussion
Yesterday got a new MOT, and managed to do almost a tank of fuel in the process. Admittedly I did pop in to the new TVR Parts dept in Bordon, Hants, but only after going to their old place in Mytchett first by mistake.
Today I went to the supermarket in the Cerb yet again, but I have at least had a chance to take my real shopping car's engine apart to find out what was wrong - it's not pretty!
I really want to get the Smart back on the road, I hate going to the shops in the Cerb (in 5mph traffic in the rain).

Injectors back from cleaning...all reading v similar and good spray patterns.....installed....and adaptive maps reset.....taken for a leisurely drive....then a bit of hard acceleration.....wow!!!!!
With a bit of effort to get everything as balanced as possible and running sweetly.....it is now just an axe wielding maniac !!!!

Interesting! The last time my car ran like that was after a drive back from Spain which I attributed to the injectors having been cleaned out from so much driving. I should get mine done. Were they bad before the clean?With a bit of effort to get everything as balanced as possible and running sweetly.....it is now just an axe wielding maniac !!!!
Really pleased. A couple of bits aren't perfect but that is due to the poorly fitted windscreen and the shocking silicone around it and the lights.
It looks wet and incredibly shiny but needs a colour sand to get rid of.some of the imperfections. Need to wait a couple of weeks for it to harden more first though.
I will take some pics of the metal flake once the sun comes out.

You'll be needing a 4.5 badge soon!
Got that covered Farmy... No I'm not doing the 4.5 thing as such, I will leave that to the AJPs.Im having a plaque made for the plug cover on the Rocker. Cut Vinyl Red Rose logo with "4.5" in the centre and "SuperSports" written underneath. (they will be placed near the door latch so you see them when door opened)
and for the rear leaving it as it is but there will be a metallic red vinyl "SS" angled by the Cerbera. So it will be a SpeedSix just saying to anyone... go on I dare you
