    We always get nervous at these times but it passed with flying colours.
    Then straight to four wheel alignment.


    My camber was quite a bit out but I had toe front and rear within half a turn on the adjuster. Quite please but they still stung me £120!
    First time I’ve really driven the car since it arrived. Goes very nicely indeed and feels well planted with those Koni shocks.
    Everything seems to be working well and boosting nicely.

    It will be an easy pass, cannot see how it would not be after all the work you have done on the car

    I will have a couple of those screw covers for the sill trims 'somewhere' it'll take some extensive rummaging to find them, will see what I can come up with.

    Hope the MOT goes smoothly.

    Top tip. Put your boot carpets in before you fit your rear bolsters.


    Anyone have a couple of these screw covers? Bottom of B pillar.


    Nearly there now.

    Adding up one's own receipts is always terrifying and that's without the hours we spend on working on them, I don't mind adding up previous owners ones though.

    I know just how you feel. I have spent much much more on the Avant. I dare not add it up.
    I hope my wife doesn't see this thread

    I've got an inch thick pile of receipts... I'm not going to add mine up as I'll just start to cry

To get the cable off, pull the end away from the slot with long nose pliers and whilst holding it back, use your other hand to push a long flat bladed screwdriver under the little grommet and prise it out.
    Thanks. I´ll have another go at it. I can reach the first pair och clips but on the other pair the carpet i stiff and buldging so it´s har to get in there. I´ll just have to try harder.
