Replaced the oil filter housing gasket and idler pulley. Hopefully now I won't have any oil leaks or a squealing noise.

Re: What have you done today?
Seemed a very nice day so cleared the leaves from the cover and went for a little spin, hood down.
Wasn't very clean when I got back
so quick wash, wax and cover back on :
Surely won't get another opportunity for tops down this year!??

Re: What have you done today?
Nah, but when I buy a car I always like to give it a thorough clean and try and make it look and smell like new, and because it's so tight down the side of the seats I thought for the sake of a few bolts I may as well just whip them out, glad I did as it wasn't nice under thereMarlon wrote:Hells Bells, thats thorough! I'm guessing you remove the number plates when your cleaning and polishing the body work?

Re: What have you done today?
Fun day today. First light drive up to the Surf on the North coast. Beautiful sunrise. Headed back home for 10:30. 100 miles, of open top joy, under the wheels and several excellent waves caught to boot.
Spot of Breakfast in the garden. Then hoovered and washed the Zed, hoovered and washed the Mazda and finally, hoovered and washed the Clio. Best of all rewarded for my efforts, with a delicious roast dinner courtesy of Mrs G.

Re: What have you done today?
I love Ray's wheels - doesn't need a hardtop IMO. Going in for Insp 2 myself in a couple of weeks (separate thread probs) and prolly do some preventative stuff at the same time. All I achieved today was 100 mile-ish trip to Helmsley for lunch with my folks and a couple of lads, sorry!

Re: What have you done today?
Drove back from Wales, well just into Wales, Chepstow. We went past 6 Z's on the trip down yesterday, following the A40 and not a single one returned my wave.
Went to Tintern abbey this morning, although it was a bit foggy, the sun shone on the abbey.
A couple of shots outside of the Hotel

Re: What have you done today?
Hello 5, yes we went over a bridge on the way home, couldn't see a bloody thing though, thick fog until we reach sunny England.
We did see 6 Z's yesterday, but no return waves, couldn't have been anyone off here
