Well gave her a wax this morning and that was it happy, but by christ my arms hurt lol So took her up Glen Nevis which is nearthe folks place for some shots with scenery:) At the bottom of where i parked is the spot where the village and Fort for Braveheart were (where his missus gets her throat slit).

Also Sammy!!! I am positive when we looked round the car i adjusted the throttle cable did i not?? Been driving about thinking the gas pedal had a lot of slack to take up, so popped under the bonnet tonight and it was back to where it was so sorted it again, just had that moment...'hmmm maybe i just thought i sorted it'

Anyways here's the pics, comments welcome:)

Like you would not believe hehe!!!!! Once i get the final daft wee thigns fixed i will be even more offf the planet lol!! Lot easier to drive now the throttle has no slack, felt like there was about 6" to take up before anything would happen, so kept stalling it as i had the zr's tightened to perfection so been looking like a fanny a few times:yay:

Glad i nicked the old mans camera, didnt take my lead with me for mine, rather impressed with 3rd pic form bottom even if i do say so myself:) Christ i feel like a kid on christmas day after too many e numbers woo hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love all the comments guys, there was sun...just on the other side of the glen hehe! took my mate out for a wee blast before the pub tonight and he loved the aceleration on her! Still got to phone garage tomorrow as she occasionaly is still reluctant to start first time an as i put her to bed tonight the revs died and engine managment light briefly flashed on. Would say its probably sparks, leads, or something in that vein an easy enough fixed...stil goes like **** off a shovel though:D:D:D

Would be exctatic if there was calendar pics there:wizard::wizard:

i know, you even seen her before i got to :D Am thinking the silver interior would be nice, first got few things to fit and pull through the wiring for the headunit:)

The garage pick her up on the 4th and leave me with a courtesy car - long story will post it up some point but needlesss to say arnold clark dundee aint on my xmas card list lol
