it will all be done in a day hopefully so I should have an interesting drive on the way home lol.
really looking forward to it being done as it's been a long time coming both in terms of Collins finishing the kit and because my dad got diagnosed with cancer in February 2019. We fitted a boiler in my house last crimbo and I noticed him limping a bit so told me mum to book him in at the docs as he was a plumber we thought it might be worn out joints as my mum had just had a hip operation but they found a shadow in his bone but said it was secondary cancer . Well my old man for all his bad habits loved his fags so you didn't need to be a brain surgeon to realise where the primary cancer was , yep in his lungs and its was stage 3 , you only get to stage 4 and it's over. My dad as strong as he was never moaned to anyone or wanted any pity he just put up with the pain . He stopped walking etc which I could see really affected him and gradually got worse ( in his leg) but not his lungs , but on the 7 July he passed away peacefully . He will be sadly missed and I've lost not only my dad but one of my best mates , rip old man.
So I was spending every minute I had spare with my dad that's why there has been no updates etc.
Slowly started getting back to doing the car .
jobs that have been done are , fitting of the airtec stage 3 intercooler , de honey combing the front grill so more air gets into the intercooler , fitting of the pro alloy big boost pipe kit.
just need to clean the car as is totally ditched tbh and needs a bit of tlc
updates coming soon
cheers paul
