Car26 XR4x4 TwinTurbo
The latest addition to the fleet is the Sierra XR4x4.
It's got what I think is a 225BHP Turbo Technics Kit.
Bought unseen, it needs a fair bit of work if it's going to get back on the road. But it should be fun when it's done.

Little steps....
This evening I dashed out to the wifes MK1 golf.and loosened off the rear beam mounting bolts ( often a source of major anoyance ) and the fuel tank straps in a stunning 30 minuets including moving some tools, starting up the sapphire and jacking up the back end of the golf..
I am also onto another couple of ideas..
Idea 1...
I am bidding on an XR4x4 Twin Turbo.... YAAHHHHHHHHHH..........
Idea 2...
After me and my 5.5yr old watched "A Car Is born" my interest in building a Lotus 7 Replica has been very rekindled.. A Project for the two of us ;)

Fixed one, another damaged
Well the mondeo was sorted with a new set of plugs which turned out to be an easy job. She had a flat battery the other day which was a surprise.. But at least she runs ok.
I have a full top end gasket set so I can clean up the top end inlet parts.
The wifes MK1 golf was raped to provid ignition parts for a M8's stricken POLO.. So it needs a couple of bits.
And some nasty person has damaged the door on the galaxy cracking the paint finish, it must have flexed the door . Not HAPPY :(
