I've been 'lurking' for a while and reading this daily Mark - enjoy your 'new' car; it's brilliant what you've achieved and I'm sure it will continue to give you many, many more years service.

Car looks fabulous Mark and well done on that hard 'home based' work - very inspiring. Enjoy the trip and everyone keep safe.

I'm just thinking where does Ian get those extra long T shirts from? It's almost the length of a dress.

Just a note to say I edited my thank you post to include Russ for his generous cambox mercy- dash across the Lake District thanks Russ and sorry for missing you off (was bound to happen)

Car has driven brilliantly on the way down - been able to give its legs a proper stretch
