Back and running as a 1380 today finally!  

Also installed front and rear sway bars, and a new steering rack which made it feel heaps better than the old flogged one.  

Just need to re torque head and fiddle with odds and ends but back running as it should be.

Got keen on the little beast again and sorted a few things out.

On other projects: wife added a Mini Clubman S as her runabout, brown like her mk3

And I finally installed a bodykit on my runaround

The big brown s? Not really. It is wife's daily. Cool car, goes better than our 2002 supercharged s she used to have, and decent foot room and a decent boot is good.

Saying that I have put a strut brace on and some decent tyres (it came from Japan with snow tyres on it).
