Its all going well apparently, the only stumbling block was splitting the transfer case from the gearbox.....a quick call to Mo and all was in order! :$

My mechanic has swapped everything over so its exactly the same! I am well impressed with him!

The engine seems to purr and there is no lifter noise :D

I have just this second got it back! Hooorrrraayyyyy!

Bad news is that it failed its MOT :sad3:

Some lights are out and I need some new steering rack ends :rolleyes5

It goes in to the body shop on Monday so sorting it may be a challenge!

I have been decorating all day! All week in fact!

The utility room is nearly done......I have installed worktops, wall cabinets, base cabinets a sink/drainer, tumble dryer venting, removed a cupboard and had a general rationalisation! Its looking good! :D

Enough about that though.................I have a working car! I cant use it though as its MOT is up :(
