Pictures to follow at some point later

Hi Patrick.

Well done. I know how you feel getting back on the road again after the winter repairs. And a fitting song track.

Love the music!

Robin

Excellent, well done!

The engine sounds good and smooth.
I notice the new front suspension seems to be riding higher?

I have to be contented with driving to the end of my drive and reversing back, but it is only 5m long!

didn't really look that closely to be honest, pics will show it better when I get around to pulling them off the camera !

It has however picked up a load of squeaks and rattles which are going to take some time to track down.

So the challenge is getting from 0 to speed to 0 again in 5mtrs

Great News, fab video Patrick. Nice to see that Max is still stealing the show...

It must be mighty pleasing to have the car back on the road, with the engine running without fault!

Is that Wales Street / Easton Lane that you're driving along at the end of the vid? It certainly looks familiar.

Yeah its on the road out of Winchester

I'm really happy the engine is running again, got a small issue with the water pump making a noise but that's it Can't wait to give it a good drive after a good run in.

Here are some photos from today:

Sorted the rattles first one was a seat bolt sticking down - when the exhaust gets warm it moves in range of the bolt and squeaks on it!

Second squeak turned out to be the ball joints at the bottom of the rear coil overs - a bit of WD40 sorted that
