To everyone on this great forum who has helped with questions and given advice over the last 4 months or so, and the chaps at Bespoke.
The Chim passed her MOT a few weeks ago, and since then I've had the 4 wheel alignment and checkover done by Bespoke Performance and done a few little bits to get her up to scratch.

So yesterday I took a trip to Bournemouth for the day. 230 odd miles and she never missed a beat. I remember thinking on the way back last night, that it's hard to believe this car was sat still on an industrial estate for over a year and a half before I bought her in April. I did just what I thought was necessary to get her through an MOT, so it was not a resto by any means. More of a lash up. But wow she performed on the way back! I'd say I spent £600 in parts and sundries, and another £500 to Bespoke. So just over a grand got her roadworthy again. Quite why she sat there for that amount of time I don't know..

From a sorry state parked up and neglected:




To being back on the road making a noise smile



Cheers
Cad
