cheers guys, 
Have decided now that the old girl wont be going to Ford Fair or Trax.
Really dont want to skint myself just to get it there and leave me no money for haveing a good summer, buying bits for the more important MK1 etc. Plus my current insurance policy is 7 months in and becuase its a van policy i cant swap it to a car without starting again 
So cars now going into hibernation untill January, but will get a few things done between then such as set up, tidying up the interior, polybushing etc
So bye bye from me for a while guys, thanks for all the comments and will do an update at the end of summer

Just a little update on the Bonus. 
Not really done much as im saveing up for the set up, but i got an absolute bargain on some Auto Gauges the other day. I know it goes against the sleeper look inside, but i already had the mount left from my last bonus, so thought why not.
Fitted
All lit up
Also, spent ages looking for a bloody front exhaust mount, the one that screws into the front inner wing. Finally Will(Puss) helped me out and sent me one in the post, cheers fella
Also got a mint Fan from Ford Fair after a guy i won one off on Ebay messed me about
All for now

So mudflaps are now on aswell
Which means shes all finished
Now need to wait for payday so i can have it set up, MOT'd, Taxed and the tracking done. All on one pay packet and all before Ford Fair
Its gone be close
cheers

Well car now idles, drives, brakes, fan cuts in, petrol gauge works etc so its 100% ready to be set up and MOT'd Gets dropped off tomorrow, just need to fill her up with Optimax tonight
The last job that needed doing was the front exhaust mount.
You cn see here what the problem was...
So 5 mins of cutting, bending and welding later you have this....
All done and the exhaust sits lovely under the car now
Sits so well if i may say so myself
Back to regular updates now that it should be going on the road
