did it run across the counter... from my days of helping some one with a set of seats with a VW from Ca we found a not so freindly red back spider.. oh missis...
looks good Helen. SA car what's the floor like... normally very solid but beat to s***
DVLA don't even worry there.. it's the esay bit and i have a mate who is an impector there.. so if you want an off the record chats ( legal mind ) he can point you in the right direction he openly says how bad they are because he knows his cars and his boss 24 yr old didn't even know what an Allego was

typical gov dept!!!

eek!! no i don't think he found anything alive in there
floor pan and everything is A1 as that had all been stripped and sorted out before i bought the car as a rolling shell . engine and all fittings and trim were in boxes.

with your newly acquired mechanical expertise, refitting the engine should be a breeze

That'd be a shame Helen. I hope you can get it up and running in time for the Highlands. Good Luck.
