Looks good. I'd like to do some more grass auto tests some time, they're good fun. Do you not have trouble with the mud flaps getting pulled off in long grass when you reversing? Happened to someone with a 205 a PCT I went to.

Happened to someone with a 205 a PCT I went to. never done it on grass, managed to rip several off reversing up the lip on my drive tho  next time i do a grass autotest I'm putting knobblies on for sure, coz grip is non existant |

well, its been sat in my garage while ive been at uni, and the day i come to it to travel home the alternator packs up and i have to fit my 55A one to get home. so now I'm back home I'm just doing a few bits and pieces to keep it going.  spent yesterday and today stripping the interior down, to move the brake and fuel lines inside, also going to be using a hydraulic handbrake. managed to strip more sound dedening out of it aswell, weighing in at about 4kg  fitted my flocked bits aswell. the rest of the dash is going to get professionally done   and ive fitted my 13's back on with new tyres. much better. fitted my cold air feed and tidied up some wiring that was looking tatty.    so probably not the most exciting update, but more to come! |

basically...run downt he item with 120 grit or something, plaster it with glue then puff the flock onto it and leave it for 24hrs before brushing it off. you can get it from www.frost.co.uk |

pinches where is that cold air feed going? I'm hope its not going to the air filter as when you hit a ford that will suck all the water in for you. being down that low |

yes that air feed goes to the filter, but water wont actually make it all the way to the filter itself. i tested the theory last night |
