Going to start this thread for members to post up what they did each day to there zed. I will start with getting my MOT this morning. So what did you do today on your 300?:cool3:

We're planning on heading to the continent later this month, including France - am I going to need one of these contraptions...??

 

You don't have to. It's only worth it if you're A: using the AutoRoute a lot and B:don't have someone in the passenger seat to pay when you get to the péage. They all accept both plastic and coinage. Getting out of a RHD vehicle and running round to the péage to throw coins in the bin or use the card machine is a pain in the ass.

Dropped mine off at the surgery! A couple of local anaesthetics and an empty garage for a few days. [emoji17]

We were in St. Jean du Mont, roughly 5 hrs from Roscoff, We followed two different routes on the Sat nav and were on Dual Carriageway and Motorway and didn't come across any Tolls Roads.

Sure am! :)

 

Nice Si, for work or holiers??

What you getting done Joel??

 

The paint is cracking just below the corner of my passenger fog lamp opening on my front bumper where a previous small crack repair was done. The paint shop is going to scallop out the area and do a proper repair whilst the bumper is fitted so it's in its settled position. There's also some slight crazing in the paint under the lacquer in a small spot on the rear bumper just above the number plate so they're making that good too.

 

Ah Joel!! That's probably why you didn't win first place at Beaulieu!! Tut Tut man!!:whistling::lol:

 

That car is minded better than my children:laugh:

Are you missing a screw cover on the fog light Joel?

It looks as though they aren't originally covered - https://conceptzperformance.com/Cart/description.php?II=2641

What a pain in the ass. Mines got a few of those, there in again mine wasn't resprayed in the last six months. I believe Hoover said he has the same issue.

Hmmm, are yours covered Gary? As Dutchgold says, they don't come with covers as new lens assemblies and my old ones didn't have any fitted...

 

.. SIMON? [emoji1]

Yes mate clear plastic covers.

Ah, you're referring to the end pieces that go from top to bottom each side? If that is the case, mine are all present [emoji106] I guess the picture I deceiving.

I've eyed the job up a few times. I didn't think it looked that bad. I'm guessing you undid the four bolts that bolt the turbo rob the manifold rather than removing the manifold?

De-tangoed my euro indicator/parking lights :-)

Passengers side removed with manifold. Drivers side just turbo
