Well its all been manic recently and next to nothing has happened to this...

I have tried lots of small things to get it to drive properly at low revs (lack of power) but haven't got anywhere, so I am seriously considering a bosch conversion (which is a shame as there is probably very little wrong, I suspect a small fault in the pump now - everything else has been checked out). 130ps injectors made no difference, boost is there and getting the signal to the ECU etc. If anyone has a DSA1096 pump spare I may be interested.

The only other thing thats happened (I did it this morning) is swapping the windscreens between this and FLER, so it now has a chip free heated tinted screen 8) (It came from the factory with a heated screen - but a previous owner fitted a non heated at some point)

I have been reliably informed that cutting has started :shock:

In the meantime I have acquired a pair of N.O.S genuine Ford rear doors and a couple of other bits and pieces for it

Here you go then;

There is a bit of a hole on the off side, and no inner rear corner to be seen;

Glad you have some new doors mate.
