Wow! What a great tale of evolution. IMO, everything you've done makes the car more appealing. Nice work, Tony!

I've finally got the Oil pressure gauge working after 6 years.

I also installed Carbon fibre look seat protectors

Also fitted new Bonnet Liner.

Also new door handle escutcheons

I don't hang about me.

Ive got window seals, gear cables and replacement wheel arch bolts to go.

I've just looked through your 'calendar of modifications' post above. I remember you documenting your upgraded turbo & Haltech ECU development, which seems like just a couple of years ago.
It is almost frightening to see it was 2010!
