Welcome back . I have read many informative posts with your name on them . Are you driving anything interesting at the moment ??

Thanks that’s very kind. Interesting yes to me anyway! I have a little Peugeot 205 xs I had one as a first car. It’s been a mild restoration project

You never know if you ask nicely :rofl: :thumbsup:

Sadly it’s all in bits and I had to sell a fair bit off. I do plan to rebuild it. I have a m54b30 sat in bits in my garage. I have the chassis of my old Z4 the turbo and the ecu. I plan to build it all back up once we move house. Unfortunately I had a garage fire and most of my tools where lost. So I need to restock and get my new garage organised first.

Glad you are safe and well and nobody was hurt apart from the tools.

I still have your tips on my car. They are in need of a good polish though seems to have some black stuff I can't get off with normal washing/scrubbing.

Loving it, especially since I've added a supercharger to the mix :-)

Yes we are all safe my little Peugeot was also miraculously undamaged. And it was all insured so when we move I have a fund to buy new with.
