So over a year since my last post Right when my subaru and peugeot have been sold i will be making my way to eastbourne to touch roger lol ;D i will be pumping up the tyres and get him running, i will then book an mot and see what he may fail on, then i will be spending time on him for his mot. once mot taken care off i will be fitting seatbelts to the rear(somehow ) so that i can ferry the kids around, i know that the kids and sit in the back without seatbelts as the law states that if they were not fitted at time of manufacture this isnt a propblem, but for my own peice of mind id rather have them seeing that roger only has soft top. after that will concenterate on tidying him up again, sitting around for over a year prob hasent helped lol, even tho when driving past he still looks (maybe a bit bias there hehe) will post again very soon when motors have sold and money as exganged hands until then ttfn ;D

Today I have pumped up the one flat tyre, taken battery off to charge.
Had a quick look round to see condition but seems ok clutch still goes up and down and gears still go into there relevant places, a relief as thought this would seize, not sure on on brakes yet as there is skittles obstacle in the way. Tommorro get him started and go from there all welcome to help Daz

Colm from Brighton Mini Club (the one that allegedly locked you in a trailer and drove you around a field at night at the hop farm) Ha Ha Ha!! That was a funny night! Was that the same night we entered the Glow competition by just sitting in a car and turning our torches on and off?
