one cossie is having 330mm discs up front (thanks stu ) and new srf fluid. that's all it needs.

the other one has just been bought, so will be taking the engine out and stripping it down for inspection and rebuilding it. also checking over all mechanical and electrical parts, and getting it registered and tuv'd (mot'd) ready for the track day season in march.

Not too much happening with mine over the winter months.

Braided brake lines are on the shopping list and some cosmetic touching up. Quite fancying a set of M.O's for it but the missus freaked when I suggested changing the rims.

nothing much to the car, maybe try n keep it clean(ish)

just bought a 2ltr Mondeo engine so the building of my zetec turbo will be the main winter project. Hopefully be ready for fitting in the summer if all goes well. Then gotta see if it fits in the engine bay of my french bean tin
