Jobs I need doing (if time permits...)
1.Relocation of precat lamdas (new bosses already welded into exhausts, just need the lamdas moving)
2.ATF and Diff Oil changes
3.Fault finding of random misfires (most likely water in plug wells)
4.In general, I'd like the car looked over by some expert eyes, in case I've missed anything!  :y

Tools and skills...
I have a garage full of general tools, plus trolley jacks, axle stands, etc.  I'm happy to bring anything with me. Just let me know what you think you might be short of... I'm fairly handy with the spanners, though no expert, so I'll happily get stuck in wherever required. Or I'll make the tea and burn the bacon if needed!  :y

I'm travelling a fair way and ideally, I'd like to stay over the night, rather than travel back. Does anyone have any suggestions for accomodation?

By the way there are plenty of axel stands and jacks here so no need to bring your own unless you really want to.

Plus dont forget the lift  :y

Oh, and forgot to add compressor and air tools to the list if required. Can see myself having to get the trailer out if everything is required. ::)

Not sure what I'm doing yet... Current thinking is that I might try and arrange an appointment with Teilo on the Friday, then probably stay at my folks in Brighton so I could always swing by yours on the way up if needs be :y

Ooh, is it worth bringing a front end kit with you? Or are we testing it's first...?

Depends... If it's all sorted and I am able to organise it I suppose it's no hardship to pick it up for you/TB/whoever if payment has been sorted to save on the postage.

As for testing it... Well, it's going to be down to either you or TB to test the standard reducer I would have thought, although the plan is to get a high power reducer in the V6 kit at the right price :y :y

That depends on other factors... If I can arrange it I want to go down on the Friday to visit the LPG man for a few things so I'll already be there.

As for finding it... I have no idea where it is at the moment, I've not had the location confirmed ::) But I would imagine you'll find it easily enough as I know how well most places are signposted well in that area ;)
