Err... Can't remember tbh! I was thinking about it earlier and did have one thing in particular in mind, but I can't remember what it was. Front brakes need doing, spoiler needs repainting, I'd like to have the steering wheel retrimmed as it's a bit tired and then it's general tidying, pair of spacers on the back, short shifter maybe, couple of retrofits and a couple of niggles to sort out.

Oi!


We'll see, that's all I'm saying.

First bit of Inters prep.

Then I got hot and went inside so I'll do a bit more later :)

Just a few more pics and words to add.

I'd got fed up of the cricket bat gear knob and I knew a few other people had replaced the gear knobs in their cars (AKS, Rob_e, etc). £30ish off German eBay:

I also felt the footrest was rather lacking so fitted an aluminium footrest. I do quite like the ones with the rubber inserts though and see they are now available from Creation for about £18, rather than having to fork out $$$ for an OSIR item. When I replace it, I'll screw the new one on straight as well :D

With the tailpipes sorted and the interior vacced, dressed and windows cleaned, I can get the rest of the car up to scratch tomorrow. It's wearing Definitive Wax's Synthetic Edition at the moment, so really only needs a foam and a maintenance wash.
Lastly, I've removed the spoiler in preparation for having it repainted c/o AKS. I can't make up my mind whether I like the car without the spoiler, but it actually looks alright.

Spoiler has been painted and collected from the nice young man in Bedford.
Also treated the car (ie me) to a small present:
