Thanks lads.
I spent some time on the car over the weekend and the good news is its ready to be MOT'd
Left the car running for about 2 hours yesterday and it didn't skip a beat, fans were cutting in and out etc, not a single problem, car even turned off
I will try and get the car out for some photos christmas weekend and i'm going to sort the interior out (gauges need tidying up) this week.
So car WILL be on the road in the new year, if it passes its immisions test
Matt.
