Ok. I'll need to plan my route. Will need to go by Castle Esso then onto Fort BP and divert to Shell beach.

Free fitting at my local car spares shop. Chap was very complimentary about the car.

Removed the coupe from its parking space and replaced it with the 75. The 75 can have a rest whilst I use the coupe for a few weeks. Just need some sun to get the roof off

Drove to work, rain and plenty of mud on the roads from the bloomin farmers, mucky dirty unclean car now 😂

Polish the alloy with Solvol Autosol and see your face in it. Used to polish my m/cycle alum parts with it, and everybody wondered how I got it so shiny.

Just drove it to work and back...

Than gave my long suffering Mecca Rossa socket set a soak in de greasant at 70C in my ultrasonic cleaning tank...
then sat and lightly oiled them, stripped the socket wrenches and re lubed where required...

all nice and smooth now....

tomorrow the case gets its 8 year wipe out and all the tools back in place ready for the next mad panic...
