Much better, it's all the little touches, watch the porsche beards don't get you for not having your centre cap pointing towards your valve

- there’s me cutting the tyres out of shot as they aren’t ‘N’ rated

Just FYI, you should really have the crest on wheel centre cap pointing towards the valve.

The key remote finally shat itself after replacing the battery & a new one is £250.

As a work-around, I ordered a £12 Remote central locking kit off Amazon and the results are as follows:-

Wee tunnel run under the Dromore fly-over

Great turnout at the Boulevard last night!

So, I'm getting pretty bored with Covid Isolating now, so decided to sort an annoying big 7-8 inch paint lacquer crack on the front bumper that's been there from I bought the car.

You can kinda see it above the plate...

It turned out pretty nice!

But then I noticed this FFS...

So my nice shiney fresh bumper ended up here...

The bottom of the driver side radiator is finished. They clog with leaves & crap, get wet & rot the bottom out of themselves. Damn...

 

[KevM]

So, on Friday evening, I cleared the tonne of crap out of the 4 radiators, removed the burst one & replaced it, made grilles for the air intakes on the bumper, changed the coolant, gave it a quick bleed.

The advice to bleed thoroughly though, is to open the breather on the expansion bottle & go for a drive. So, I did that today!
