Quick pic of the mini honda meet at ours now. Karen's civic, Steppy McStepwagon, and Tubs2 (aka Shelly)

Still waiting for the bumper for the wagon.. Got one sent eventually, but they sent the wrong one, so waiting for it to be collected and swapped. Other than that it's mot ready.

Forgot to update this.. Got through it's mot with a few bits needed, but just maintenance tips things, drop links, ball joints etc, and some advisories on thin pads. 

 

Got sorted, and got some nice new rainsports on the wheels off Karen's old blue accord, and got them fitted this week.

Quite like the look of them. Also refurbed the compressor for the air suspension, and fitted a new pressure switch, so that's all working great as well now.  Glad to have ditched the "snow leopard" winter tyres that were on the steelies, and with some more air in the suspension, it handles much better. 

 

Did the pads while I was on, and pleased I did, because they were OLD. the driver fronts were the worst... They fell to bits when I took them out.

Also, chucked a bit of paint on the side skirts where the garage had peeled their stickers off and took the paint with it before they sold it. Fixed a hole in the corner of the spoiler with some filler and got some paint on.. Rough as a badger's arse, but it works for now. Fitted the spoiler for the first time today, and love the crazy look it has.

Finally, made a little shelf to go over the air tank to allow camping stuffing to take place.
