[Deandubya]

Monday morning had new discs & pads fitted on the front will renew the rears after the 'C' word ready for MoT toward the end of Jan...

 

[CAB]

i know how you feel with the knackered arm after doing mine I was seriously contemplating getting a cordless polisher... especially after balancing on a step ladder too lol.

Xmas soon!!!

Xmas soon!!!

unfortunately... i love Christmas but it's being spouted out way too early... again.. always been December for me, then go for it, blast the songs & bring on the cheer!

A good clean. Also replaced the fixings on the battery cover with threaded BMW items - not only are they more secure, they make removing and refitting the cover much less fraught.

Service and inspection at my good friend’s independent in Trentham, Staffordshire. I’m 100% happy
Paddock Performance really look after their customers - going the extra mile.

Oil & filter changed, MOT passed with no advisories. That’s the good news

Less good - EGR needs replacing but that was expected

 

[frankspencer1979]

Oil service and inspection today at local VW specialist. I asked nicely and they activated the dial sweep for free so that was a brucey bonus

Need to find out what other goodies I could get switched on

 

[Roodedoo]

I made a thing. The first flick of the switch is red light. Turn off and on again and it's white.
I still might add some trim for the carpet edge

I just dribbled a little. Looks awesome. I would also change the chrome strip to purple and infill the badge. Very nice

I did consider that, but wanted to see how it looked first. Got spare paint left, enough for couple of panels even, so might go back and retro that. Rear badge is infilled though

Nice looks great. I keep adding more purple so I'm sure one day the whole van will be repainted purple

Had a busy couple of evenings this week, all AA racking removed, bulkhead out, floor scrubbed up ok, hopefully off to the body shop tomorrow for roof beacon holes to be welded/painted properly

 

[Roodedoo]

Your's looks quite clean.
My RAC van was an awful oily mess

My racking was slightly different - more sideways and some bigger drawers.
It's been amazing for tidying up my workshop!
