  • Of all of the panels I have changed, this has been the only one that I didn't enjoy doing. It's not the weight of the tailgate that's the problem, but the alignment, the bits that go onto it, and the wiring loom. The loom also needed some fixing as well

    Gosh! That was quite trying! You’re a braver man than I am, Mustard. Congratulations on your perseverance and cunning. Nigel’s rear looks splendid. A rear to be proud of!

    Well done! There's always more faffing than expected with a job like that isn't there? That's why my motto is - don't do anything today that you can put off till tomorrow!😊

    13:29 What a valiant job ! I've had to do the working on the 216. I've bodged it for now and will do a 'proper' fix when the cars actually back on the road. 😂

      @@ProjectNigel The project? Yeah, it's been a challenge and fun. Money is slowing progress a little now. Need to get some springs and shocks and the headgasket done. I MIGHT have a go at the gasket myself. What could go wrong, eh? 🤣

    Just thinking about the rough running incident earlier, would it be the crap petrol we have nowadays ? And Nigel sitting for a bit, had a bit of a brain fart ? Some nice super unleaded and an Italian tune up perhaps ? Love the new tailgate 👍🏻

    What was the original colour of Nigel? Beige? Fiat 500 owners know all about hatch wiring 🙂, with the 5v canbus skinny wires. Yours look a bit easier relatively speaking in comparison. (soldering scares me slightly 😧) Shhhhhh!

    Can I offer you first refusal for my zr 160, she's failed her MOT on the dreaded rust. She's had lots of money spent on her leading up to her demise, alcantara interior, belts and water pump, cobra exhaust, Gaz shocks, custom alloy radiator, refurbished alloys, with good tyres relatively new, new calipers, carriers, Hel brake lines, all round, new coil packs, HT leads, upgraded front light bulbs, brm heater knobs, brm gear knob. New sunroof seal. Super chips remapped ECU.
