Just a quick hello to you all as I've put a deposit down on a 500 Chim today. It joins my Elise 111r and Fiesta ST3 daily driver.

I've heard we only have 53 years of petrol left on earth so I may as we'll use my fair share now!!

Just waiting for the seller to MOT it and slap some tax on and I'm away. I may be asking for advice on a fitter/supplier of carpet sets as that's the only area of the car that needs at week in the short term.

I look forwards to seeing some of you around the Northwest.

Simon.

No, the actual carpets covering the inside of the car. The outside has had a respray, the underneath has had a chassis refurb but the interior just needs a tweek.

It's not a mess but I wondered about pre cut interior you can DIY in. I live in Northwich but work in Stockport if anywhere springs to mind near either of these places.

Yup, got it and have drove it to work and back today. Still feeling my way, quite a thing!

I think for now I'll live with the carpets and perhaps get some silicon hoses and silicon smooth induction pipes.

And so it begins!!!

I just want to give it a good polish now :-)

Ill sort that once I've got it cleaned up.

I'm normally a bit car proud :-)
