Dan302 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Henry's friend looks to be Tonic blue like my MK1, a smart colour. Eyersey1234 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyersey1234 Posted February 8, 2020 Author Share Posted February 8, 2020 Yes I would say it is Tonic Blue, I agree it's a nice colour. When I got my old Fiesta I actually wanted a Fusion in either Tonic Blue or Jeans Blue but the monthly payments would have been too much. It isn't obvious from the picture but his friend is an 07 reg Estate too. Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyersey1234 Posted February 13, 2020 Author Share Posted February 13, 2020 An update on a couple of previous cars, it would appear the yellow Panda has been scrapped as no trace at DVLA and MOT expired. The red Mk6. 5 Fiesta is still on SORN and MOT expired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyersey1234 Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 Just spent an hour cleaning Henry's dashboard and front windows, knew it needed doing but hadn't realised just how filthy it was in there. It's not perfect now but an improvement on before. Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyersey1234 Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 A few trim bits for Henry are on their way courtesy of someone off another forum who has broken his Mk2 for parts. Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan302 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I may be buying a 2004 C-Max 2.0 tdci very cheap from someone at work. It's currently his dog carrying car so I'll need to give it a good valet then possibly get the timing belt done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a hand valeting it give me a shout. Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyersey1234 Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 Package arrived today. I've a couple of days off later in the week so hopefully will be able to fit the new (well secondhand) trim to Henry this week. Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyersey1234 Posted March 18, 2020 Author Share Posted March 18, 2020 Henry will get a good run out to Shropshire this weekend, probably be the last one for a few weeks owing to the current situation re coronavirus. Sadly some of the places I was planning on visiting will be closed but the weather looks like its going to be good so I should be able to get some good photos of the area, and currently some of the Ironbridge Gorge museums are still open so the weekend won't be wasted.

Eyersey1234 Posted March 20, 2020 Author Share Posted March 20, 2020 Had a nice run down to Shropshire this afternoon, plan for tomorrow now is to go to the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire given the situation with coronavirus.
