I actually went for a drive.

I had knee surgery a month ago so my left leg has been out of action. How nice it is to finally get back in to a decent car instead of a rental with a slush box.

As a result, I made a mess which was duly cleaned as soon as I got home.

You've got a bit of bug-splatter there that looks just like the shape of he Nurburgring. Amazing good luck!

Did a 300 mile round trip on Sunday morning to Gloucester to look at a 1954 MG TF that i bought for a complete restoration and can sympathize with Frances the Mute at how dirt the car was when i got back ...still a excuse to give it a good clean

My Vantage got torn in to today -

Carpets up in passenger footwell to open fuse box and replace 12v power point fuse which had blown.

Found issue with banging wiper arm and came up with a fix.

Front grille and rear diffuser removed and taken to body shop to be repainted.

Ski slope removed to find a rattle that was driving me insane, culprit found and will be fixed in the morning.

Good day all in!

Before the weather hit (only just come in this morning) I dropped the Vantage off for its service last night. It appears I might be moving into another car shortly. Man maths at its absolute best... (details soon if it all goes to plan).
