She's back, too dark for picks and after an 'ahem' spirited drive through the a roads she needs a quick clean, especially the wheels. Tomorrow will involve putting the interior back in

Then need to decide what to do next - flocking and a retrim of the steering wheel or tax and MOT

It was certainly good to get it back - new judder free clutch too

Is it rude to thrash a freshly painted car round the twisties
