		Managed to fix the stopping problem, someone had tapped into the ign live for something and it was shorting. So now to get on with the fun stuff 
 
Now have a full straight through exhaust on, which is loud to say the least, but growing to like it slmunds great on full chat 
 
I have these seats to  
 
go in at some point... so some bodging required there.

Will be repainting my wheels all one colour this week and ordering some faux suede to start colour coding the inside. Colour suggestions?  
 
Then the roof bars will be going on and im on the hunt for a roof box. 
 
Oh and dat bead..
