Update, now fitted with a Turbo Thomas (www.turbothomas.com) stainless steel (polished) Sports Style Twin Outlet muffler.
Sounds gorgeous!
for some reason seems to make the car appear lower from the back!

Easily! The car goes back a long way compared to that pic and they just close like any other pair of gates!964RS wrote:How on earth do you shut those gates?
There is plenty of space at the back as it's a private road

Monsieur Bumble is coming off the road for a little while. Nothing major. Some bodywork and paint, lot's of mechanical stuff and general maintenance - he won't be coming to Le Mans this time but will be seeing you all in Wales!

Now in the garage, various areas of paint (few rust bubbles to sort out etc.), new steering rack and UJ's, SWEPCO gearbox oil change, service, rust proofing chassis and cavities, general tune up, oh and an MOT!
Just feel the need to do something else while he/she is in there, hmmmmmmmm

Monsieur Bumble is MOT'd and driving like a different car now thanks to the steering and brake rebuilds. A few styling changes are taking place in time for Wales (hopefully!)

No, maybe a bit of Liberace bling in the form of some detailed 15'sNige wrote:styling changes?
Assume you mean one of these in the boot I guess, with a full range of Rimmel?

few updates. The car is now back from various mechanical jobs, some paint and some serious rustproofing.
A few subtle changes and more to follow!
Numberplate change
Decals removed (they were for the paint anyway and decided to go without them.
