    Montego GSi MOT. In no hurry as it's going nowhere........ yet

    Rover 216 Coupe cambelt change. Will do soon including cam seals, engine service and put another aerial on

    MG Montego EFi door fix. Door now on and just need to put back electrics etc but in no hurry as it's going nowhere

    MG Montego Turbo re-build. In no hurry as it's going nowhere

    Just a couple of things to get my hands dirty then Andy when i'm not working

    I have now moved my Turbo and GSi to new storage premises nearer to my house and that's when I found that the Turbo's gaiter had split, I have a spare though and it won't take long to replace it.

            This issue landed on the doormat this morning. Some excellent pictures, and the write-up isn't bad either. The whole article seemed without any 'BL drivel' which makes a very nice change indeed.
