Well, we made it to bingly and back with no trouble at all - in fact only time we stopped was because the tape on the seat was falling off - lol

The people living up that road loved it when we stopped outside :w00t: - only in a mini!!!!!

At bingly we picked up my beautiful bucket seats - thankyou smudger :lol: Tho, that was a mean trick he played - he got me to sit in a seat, and i got comfortable, then he said: "thats the pro seat, this ones yours" No matter though, the 'non-pro' seats i got are awsome, and i swear i've made heavier poop's than them seats!!! :P

At the moment i've got a couple of assesments at uni, but after they're done i got lots to be getting on with. At home waiting to fit is:

Full set of lowered spax
Hi-lo's
4 new cones
rear poly bushes
New rear subby bolt kit
Braided rear hoses
Rear camber brackets
Front adjustable bottom arms
Leather straps for front end and boot
Bullit mirrors
Mk1 dials
Rollcage and door bars
Seats
Door squares and a few other stickers
My heater - its sooooooo cold :'(  

When the rear subby is off its going to be fully recon'd and possibly powder coated white - in rally stylie! As will the front subby.
the engine bay and under the car in the rear subby area will too be painted white :) The engine may get a coat of BMC green if it behaves!

In true rally style i plan to mount the passenger bucket on the floor, as far back as poss, without clouting the rollcage. I also want to bring the gear linkage up into the car so that the lever is closer to the wheel, and also tempted by a long hydraulic handbrake right up close to the wheel?? - i can see that gettin me in lots of trouble tho :dontgetit: 

Speaking of wheels, i've gotta order my steering wheel too, i nice small simple sparco jobbie.

Oh - and as you may have seen, i sold my bike can exhaust and i got this beauty - i acctually fitted this before the RR, but forgot to mention it, my bad. Also got the ram pipes from minispares, which dispite being a pain to fit, are amazing!!!!!!

NOTE TO ALL, GET RAMPIPES - THEY SOUND AWSOME!!!! - kinda like a turbo spooling up - its unreal!!!
