Bad new is you going to have to sort the brakes before you go rolling off down the hill! And you could at least try and look happy whilst sat in the car.

Well done, great feeling isn't it.

Never mind the brakes it'll be the pushing it back up the hill that you have to worry about !

I'm joking about the hill... my dad would have a fit!

Wheels are Caterham 6x14 KN Jupiters..... 'Skoda wheels'. I think they look great
