At last Soarer De-limited and speedo reads in MPH. Easy job took about 2 hours all in including coffee and chatting to the Mrs etc.

New tyres are flat so can't put them on will have to wait till the weekend when the big brakes get put on.

Removed some heat shielding off the exhaust to stop it rattling.
Tried to get the ciggy lighter to work - not had any luck, needs a replacement one.
Other then that car is in tip to mechanical condition, still needs paint work at the front though.
