Actual Magpie.
You'll definitely need one yep...
Both ends (top nut and hub-end nuts and bolts) of the fronts in particular...and, if you're taking off the panhard, for that too, when you refit it..
Top nut = 37nm/27lbf
Top mounting nuts = 28nm/20lbf (I wouldn't bother about these, just tighten well with a long bar...you really don't want to shear these off!)
Hub-end nuts/bolts = 118nm/87lbf
Panhard rod nut = 88nm/65lbf

As well as having my car cleaned Jordan also got my fogs working 
Fitted my LED bolts for the rear number plate. Not sure on keeping them where they are...

Had a good long day out on a little Auto Triathlon today
Despite not really knowing what the car was going to do handling wise I pushed it hard, a little too hard on the last run as it got too hot and refused to run properly. Once on the road and into some cold flowing air it soon calmed down and business resumed as usual
The last hard push meant H701 won event 3 overall. But came 6th in event 1 (event 2 wasn't scored)
First run on event 1 I might have gotten a little lost, ignored my codriver and picked 7 penalty points, which knackered my chances of winning straight away oh well I had fun
@pollyp thoroughly enjoyed himself too, coming 4th in event 1, and getting himself a trophy just for turning up from such a long way away
We have videos, well I have 1 one from the sidelines, Paul has many more than me we'll get through everything and give a bit of feedback on the day at some point. For now I'm way too tired from manhandling my non power assisted steering car around a start stop track I'd put up a photo of the trophy but I left it in the support car which isnt home yet
Run 3 in event 1, fastest run of the day

Bought another spare door mirror.
... Well... outer casing and glass with what looks like the motor attached.
Just spotted it in a box (that had "Rover 200 parts" written on it) in front of someone stall at the car boot sale this morning.
apparently I can spot a Renault part at 100 paces LOL
...not quite a bonnet or bumper but...
...not bad for a quid though eh?

new nismo engine mounts, new tie rods and new front upper shock insulators. k11 is back hard like a brick!
Was jumping out of 2nd so Matt Humphries is going to take a look for us, says it's a worn dog that needs replacing
I obviously didn't mix enough pedigree chum in with the gearbox oil, poor dog.

Always do, shifts the weight balance rearward.
After 15 days, I still got no micra.
Need to wait for this new mot and road tax. This seller is very busy in this month so I got to wait.

Took off all the badges and mouldings on the outside.
You could go a lot quicker if they took them bleddy cones away, always digging the road up !!!!
