Fuel rail rebuilt, coolant pipes replaced. Injector seal kit has 2/3 of the seals I need. Great. Can I find some for next day delivery or within striking distance? Can I fuck. Ordered two sets from two manufacturers to race them and see whether one will arrive before the weekend. Hopefully put everything together Saturday or Sunday.
Citroen fan fixed, discovered knackered driveshafts and got them replaced. Still to do front wheel bearings. Brake discs not arrived yet, due for Saturday.
All getting a bit close for departure Monday. One slip with the post and we’re waiting around on Monday for parts...

What’s the condition of the old brake discs? Would they survive Wales?

My Oppomeet prep is going to consist of an oil top up, tyre check, battery charge, and a shit ton of praying to the MG gods for good fortune and many reliables.

Hum, now that’s a dilemma. Do you pray to the MG gods (requires sacrifice of a Triumph effigy) or the British Sports Car gods (requires sacrifice of a hot hatch effigy)...
Tricky that one...

Who’s bringing a hot hatch? I’ve got matches.

They were rusted on pretty thoroughly and winded up bending slightly when we took them off. Runout on discs is pretty small.
On the positive side, they have arrived so everything should be good to go :)

I suppose Twingos count as hot hatches of a sort when they’re burning...
