We've got a weeks holiday to potter round and do a few jobs which is nice

So notable as it his today I took the MK for its MOT.
Last year was the first year it's not been on the road, due to family issues
Anyway, it passed with flying colours, so I just thought I'd make the effort to post by way of a bit of celebration
10 years! My how time flies!
Still....
I can honestly say that the little MK has still continued to stay in one piece despite much abuse and little fettling and living "outdoors".
With the exception of a few battle scars I think it's only cost me a couple of clutch changes, the occasional oil change and a couple of pair of rear tyres.

I've also made some good friends along the way and it still gets complimented at various events depite still wearing almost all its SVA trim still!
Anyway that's me done
Cheers Locostbuilders

Cannot believe also how time flies, I still regard MK Indyblade as new but I completed the build in 2008. Still love it and could never sell it. Congratulations on your cars10th birthday.

Time does appear to just vanish! Started my Westy build 1999, still got it.. it won't be going any time soon!

Very early trackday at Elvington, perhaps 2002:




And a more recent one at Croft:

I moved to burr beige last year. Where about? Could do with some inspiration to get building again (still not finished after more than 10 years).
