I haven't done anything to it for months.
I've driven it 20 miles in the last 3 weeks, and that was on Sunday.
Hopefully it's still parked outside.

After driving the battlebus around French France for two weeks I fought my way through the brambles, started the Elite, pumped the tyres up & drove it to work  :(

Stuck a 16' twin axle plant trailer on the back and drove to Strood in Kent to collect a 1000L tank and drove back again ::)

MOT time
2 new rear tyres and 2 track rod ends and its back on the road for another year  :y :y

No advisories too  :P

Track rod ends must have been dodgy for a while because it does feel much more direct now  :-\

New centre exhaust section on the 190. Walker shite, so about an inch short, which made fitting hard work.

Update. The hard work didn't pay off. As I was leaving work at 7.30 this morning, the back box parted company with the shite Walker centre box. Pulled it off the car, snapping he rubber O ring hangers in the process and slung it in the boot.
Now have to climb under it again and try to work out a permanent solution.  :(

Fitted a loom hanger from 2.2 and a new rear view mirror after SWMBO punched it off and broke the ball joint

Her excuse was the shopping bag was about to roll off the seat so lashed out to grab it. I say she was driving  while on the phone then trying to reach into the bag
