yep taxed online :D i think it may be to do with a newly issued log bokk (when i changed the engine and colour) as the tax form now comes with a ref number - never did before :?

i think that might be the MOT he's on about :?

update
well - im poping up each night to do a bit more :lol:

carpeted fully now - temprary carpet tho - will sort the interior out properly later :lol: fitted 2 door seals - the ones i have are in poor condition i want new ones but no time before gaydon :D pity they need glueing one :( same with the door cards just put old ones in - i'll sort that out later too :D

fitted one for the wellers on the front - no good way too wide :( so its a pair of mk3 wheels with rover hubcaps - similar looking to the back alloys :oops: :lol: very dissapointing - its a toss up to which job i'll sort 1st when im back the front alloys or the exhaust :lol:

apart from that all set 8) gaydon here we come :lol: - i really need to wire up the cooling fans - should be ok if i dont cant see it being that hot :lol: best take some wire with me tho :lol:
