Erm, four. Is that too many? Itβs too many isnβt it? π€£
Reg plate didnβt stick and the boot is still full of ancillaries BUT it looks like a proper car again!
Doing jobs out of order thanks to the awful weather
Out of the blue, the wife of the guy who originally built the Mk1 Golf GTI got in touch and kindly sent these images of when it was magazine featured in December 1996.

SEAT IBIZA FINAL BOSS
I made a video the seemingly nobody watched, if youβre a rally enthusiast, perhaps youβd call it a horror?

The snow has finally reached the north, just in time for the weekend.

Exciting news; today I discovered our Mk1 GTI was featured in Reva magazine back in the dayβ¦
I think the Mk1 Seat Ibiza deserves more love!
Today at Rustivalβ¦
Picked this up last night. It isnβt new, have owned it for years. Itβs just been waiting at a friends yard for seemingly ever. Little side-project coming soon.

40 years ago in November 1985, the first Martini Lancia Deltas won their debut event, the Lombard RAC Rally. Can I get my rolling wreck ready in time to drive the same route?

Sunday at the workshop was COLD! -3 celcius was the warmest it got which made everything take an age. On the plus side, we snapped these beautiful shots of the Cooper against a frozen vista.
Itβs 9 years TODAY that I started YouTube.
Here is my channiversary videoβ¦
Can we make 2025 the year these two cars become reality?

Well I made it to 1000 subscribers on YouTube. That took just 8yrs and 364days!
Ty DeLoreans illegal DMC (deadly motor car) meets its fate in my latest video and I think itβs totally justified!

That is impressive. The M42 in my old E30 318iS used to use about 1 litre of oil every 2,000 miles. To be fair, that car was never shown any mercy and spend most of its life on the red line though.
Surprisingly, or perhaps not surprisingly, the Hyabussa shares a number of parts with my 1997 GSXR 750 SRAD track bike. Things like the rear wheels are identical.
Depends on the television show. In recent years I donβt think much has topped Better Call Saul. Itβs the perfect antidote to the awful regurgitated trash that seems to pass for the majority of broadcast TV.

My next project; drag this into the workshop and turn it back into a car.
Next into the workshop is this little StreetKa, purchased for just 400 quid. Is the rot terminal? We hope not!
