Don't know if I'm ever going to be ready for that!

Christmas came early this year! After completing a couple of small jobs, I had a bit of a play with my new toys.

Much easier to move cars around the shed now. :)

Semi-employer has a set of these skates, they are very useful for moving cars sideways when you don't have room to 'parallel park'.

The Cav is a beaut. I look forward to seeing the PC feature, I'm lucky to get @Cluffy's copies when he's finished doing the crossword. 

Re: driver's door rattle: TADTS. My Dad's five MK2 Astras all did it. It's a factory feature to keep you awake/annoyed.

This has been neglected for the last few months. Fortunately it forgave me by starting instantly when I finally got round to paying it a visit this morning.

The very light use its had since its return to the road means it has stayed pleasingly clean under the bonnet.

And inside too.

It really needs a lot more use - I'm thinking of letting it go if I don't get much time in it next year. :(

In 1993 I bought a D reg 1.6 GL off my father in law. With 20 k on the clock. It had never been out in the Rain or Salt. 

Was probably as clean as that. 

5 years later with 110K on the clock I sold it to buy an AX1.4D .  How stupid can one person be.
