The box has already been on, and off again as is the Cliffie way.


I've been thinking about that day a lot recently as I was replacing mine. Hope we both have better luck this time ;)

The build is looking superb Mike thumbsup can't wait for the season now :)

Cheers Dave. I had no rights to make that ferry you know. I had no brakes at all on the way down and had to pump to get it to stop.

Never, ever again...


















....maybe.

The flocked dash has now arrived, lovely finish. Has a few marks from the bubble wrap but they will lift in the heat of the office. Feels like a recently shaved cat.

Cost about £80 plus the VAT and delivery and will reduce the dash reflection on the screen which can only be a good thing. The guy at The Flock Shop is called Ron and the majority of his work is for rally teams.

Not going to ask how you know that :o :P

Unfortunately I didn't, I will NEVER change a box again :(
