Bloody cool plate Trev! I've been trying to get a fitting plate for my Focus as it's too old to steal the Fabia's private "X" plate.

Cheers I got lucky as it was a cheap one, wanted the shortest to go on the bumper so its more easily readable like it is

I've got one somewhere but I don't know if I'll use it for the car yet. Time will tell and that.

Fitted some replacement rear springs for the kw’s as the ones on there had really seen better days,

Been busy last couple of days

The car had two little spots of rust which annoyed me so found a couple of mint replacements in same colour off a vrs too.

Bootlid had some bubbling starting above and around number plate lights and one hole was drilled into bootlid at some point in its life meaning my 6 digit length plate wouldn’t fit without showing it,

 

im also going to get the rear screen swapped over as there’s some white worm in edge of window, whereas my original rear screen was immaculate.

just needs a good polish when I get it detailed shortly

 

 

Rear passenger door had started to go on the bottom,

 

 

so another mint door other then being dirty fitted to that, luckily tinted too aswell

 

 

Then fitted some gloss black polo 9n door handles 

 

 

Also in process of tidying the meth install, all the various old holes have been rust treated, hammerited then siliconed over, then the ones I’m using were opened up a little and rivnuted, abit easier to fill the bottle here and also meant the Forge rear Brace I found for a bargain could fit.

interiors and carpet is going back in, and going to get some countersunk Allen bolts to  secure the bottle.

Had the rear heated screen swapped over today from the old one as the glass was immaculate and I had some white worming on the border of the new one,

 

much better

It's amazing the difference a mint rear screen makes. They stand out so much when the glue starts showing through.

 

I love these updates Trev, it's further proof the car has ended up in the right hands and not being ragged to death or broken for spares.

Cheers I even got over 50mpg on work run 😂 I’m loving it

I'll echo what others have said, it's really nice to see that this is in the right hands and isn't just going to end up ragged to death and then binned into a ditch after 2 weeks.

Cheers hopefully not indeed

Fitted a brighter led for the water meth light as I couldn’t see it very well in daylight, this one’s much brighter

Very tasty car and really could not be in better hands

Jealous I didn't win it but I've enough around me at the minute.

She's amazing, I keep contemplating on getting rid of her and getting something more practical because of the baby but I just can't do it. It's absolutely faultless.

There's two!

 

Chap on Auto****e (or cornishcarspots on T'Instagram) has a very weirdly specced Mk1 1.4 8v estate in fantasy green.
