Cosmetic surprises

Well, after our successful road trip to London and Longleat, normal service has resumed and the panda is again temporarily immobile. This is a 'planned immobility' - just until friday when Ben's friendly garage mate John will be tuning up the engine and fitting a new gaitor - which should hopefully keep the gearbox oil in and around the gearbox, rather than on the garage floor.

Given the mobility interlude, it gives us chance to mention a few cosmetic upgrades that have occured. The first is the conclusion of a secret project Ben has been doing. After shiftily nipping to the garage and back for 5 minute periods, every few hours for a couple of days - he finally unveiled the masterpiece that is our rally airbox. Formerly just a lump of boring plastic, we now have our own orange spray-painted rally airbox!

See the ceremonial fitting below.

Proud, so proud

Within the next 48 hours, I hope to announce our second underbonnet surprise and indeed our second corporate sponsor (out of over 200 approaches made now!). There's also some external cosmetics that Ben has been sorting....so much to tell.
