Started the 180 today........
 
why the post I hear you say!

Well, the poor thing has been batteryless for a couple of months and I decided to charge it up and pop it in and start the old girl up. Well the immobiliser kicked in, as did the bloody siren! God I didn't realise how ear splitting that thing is when the bonnet is up :huh:

:w00t: what a noise, was music to my ears hearing it purr :D

Ordered my induction pipes and breather today, hopefully get that together next weekend, get the front bumper back on.

Just waiting for the wheels to be painted, currently getting them refurbed including the centre caps. So will have to get the tyres refitted and balanced.......................then cometh the MOT and tax, think i'll leave that until March.

Had a good scan underneath expecting the fuel tank to be showing signs of surface rust, but no, all ship shape.

Got to give it a polish and pop the St George flags on, bring on the sun :D

End of October, that's when the tax ran out.

Yes, but not as loud as the alarm siren with the bonnet up!
