Excellent. I see you keep your Smeg in the top part. Liverpudlians should know what I mean.
I don't care what you say, I won't agree with your view. :x

    You say that like it's a bad thing, whilst you'd be sucking in that stomach to get through the garage door. :P

      Looking good Rob. :thumbsup:

      Although I wouldn't be keeping Doom Bar in a fridge!

      But I'm more interested to know about the other contents of your garage. After you posted that teaser photo of an H2 do you have it now?

      I don't have a fridge in my garage, I have to have a freezer. Fridge takes too long to chill, freezer only takes 15 mins from ambient to around 5c.

      I do hope it doesn't use the modern R600a refrigerant. If it uses R134a it will be fine. :thumbsup:
      All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

      F31 320i. Good car.
      E89 20i Now fully dried
      Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
      Mazda3 sold
      Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

      Yep, I’ve been out on the H2 a few times - and now have it in bits :lol:
      It’s running a bit rich so I’ve had the carbs off to check/adjust the float heights & I’ve just sent the choke plungers off to have them tipped with viton rubber so they seal properly, I’ve ordered some new plunger springs in case the old ones had lost some strength as well. Also waiting for the kickstart to come back after some stainless steel welding :thumbsup:
