What did you do to your MK1 today?
Took it home from the garage where it's been for the month since I bought it attempting to get it road worthy after ten years in a barn. Partial success - MOT but only running on three cylinders.
A quick removal of a shelf, relocation of the fridge and she's snugly into her new home in the garage. A week of cleaning and a new interior and then she'll be back to the mech to see if we can't get the fourth piston to join the party!
Very happy!!!!

A few more jobs crossed off the to do list
Took the car to have the wheel alignment set
Replaced O ring on fuel/air adjust screw to stop idle dropping
replaced all the small vacume hose connectors which looked in a sorry state
tried to fix the driver side door mirror adjusting thing, (ops) cut through 2 of the guide wires so door mirror now broken and i need a new one
Washed the car and then went for a drive to Belfast
MOT on Monday so fingers crossed
