Here are a couple of pics Andy took yesterday.

Ollie all ready and waiting for the trip up to Matt's workshop for a final inspection and MoT...

Ollie returns! 578e279c

And sat content outside the workshop have recieved the all important certificate with NO advisories listed... Relief and happy faces all round. Not bad for a car that has stood of over three years!

Ollie returns! Fb165f95

Now taxed and ready for FRL. We had what felt like a trial run for this on our last part of the trip home down the M1 in the dark and subzero temperatures. At least we now know which parts of our bodies need the extra insulation...
Freezing

Cheers for that Matt. All received and printed off. Now to pluck up the courage to start drilling holes in the bootlid! Suspect

Cheeky sod! It's the same bodywork but without the stripes... for the moment. Fraz has thought of a slight variation he would like just to add his own touch to it. More restoration work to come in the future but can be enjoyed now...
Bonkers!
