Not updated this with any pics of my cabby recently. The car needs a damn good clean, but today i've just cleaned / treated the roof and fitted my coloured (black with white insert) bump strips, which can be seen in the photo.

Image

The car also has a nice grey leather interior in it now.

Jobs todo this year:

- Fit correct rocker cover (SPI currently has a MPI rocker cover fitted)
- Tidy / Treat bodywork rust spots
- Spray / fit new bumpers (to match new bump strips)
- Fit electric windows (so i can use the matching door cards for the interior!)
- Waxoyl the car underneath

Took a couple of the cabriolet in the sun today. Taking advantage of my new electric hood, still got loads i want to / need to do on her, but she is getting there slowly!

And one of my son James enjoying his first trip with the roof down, just don't tell his mum!

My ever growing todo list looks something like....

- Tidy up a few bits in the engine bay (new vacuum pipes needed, bonnet stay clip etc etc)
- Refurb spare set of alloys
- Paint & fit spare bumpers
- Repair passenger side electric window - (probably a fault with my wiring when i converted it from manual windows!)
- Fit illuminated sunvisors & MGF mirror
- Refit poor fitting rear window (dodgy aftermarket hood)
- Fit aftermarket remote locking kit
- Fit electric mirrors
- Waxoyl underneath
- Fit new springs & shocks
- Repair bodywork / Treat rusty bits
- Respray!
