Wowzers, another 2 months have whizzed by!

I decided to sell the leather interior, I just couldn't get around to fitting it, and I needed the cash for something else.

All of the Harmon Kardon bits went too, I wanted to fit it, but decided not to after reading that aftermarket stuff would give a better sound. But I'll probably never actually do that!

Yesterday was a busy day, I had a day booked in with BigRuss, who was going to do a service for me, and fit my new MTec front & back brakes.

My last MOT advised changing the brakes, so after doing a fait bit of research I plumped for the MTec dimpled & grooved discs & pagid pads. I shall report back with my findings...

A few pictures from the fitting:-

Before:-



What a difference!



Replacing the handbrake shoes was an absolute pig, I fully understand why Russ said he hates doing them...!:-



Much better:-





I'm obviously still bedding them in, but will report back when I have something meaningful to say!
