Great minds and all that :)

Think a Smithy SOS DIY might be next on the list he needs a garage building so the proper car is local :)

I am working on the real car and will post some pics very soon .the ladder frame is in powder coating at mo and then will get pics back up .once all the floor is dried out I will fit hardline fuel pipes in then starting should commence .but in the meantime I like my v40 as my everyday

Be fair lads, he's probably had that filter a couple of years, and he's only just got round to fitting it. ;)

Yes I agree best to just remap a diesel .but I have to admit I'm liking my v40 because it does everything I need it too .and I drive trucks for a living so petrol head I will be staying lol .

I wouldn't mind a toy lol maybe if I can get this job and stuff but I might get a m/bike instead get back into that I'm undecided, diesel is handy though especially for towing and also long jaunts to see my family as it's good on fuel.
