If I had to be just a little bit picky, the shut line on the bonnet is a wee bit noticeable....
Paintwork is lurvely though!

Amazing Matt....Well done buddy. This is not the car I bought and is as a good as new now. Must be the best 2.4 diesel on the market. Stunning work and patients.
Good morning all.

Morning all.
Windy out there today so a short bike ride I think. First up though is a coffee with friends.
Then a curry for lunch

Morning. Flat out at work. Why does it always go mental when your about to go on holiday???
Thanks for the comments Andy, its been a mission as you know and the £1500 profit I stand to make will be the hardest worked £1500 ever but, the car is now 'right' so sometimes thats more important than profit and will go on to make a lovely car for someone.
