Sad days, after repeating whinges from my aging father about the T5 being left on the drive back in the UK (he rarely drives these days), I mentioned that I might consider selling it to one of my buddies who is a friend of the previous owner, who we both know... end result he flew in from Northern Ireland Friday night and just drove my old 850 beast 600 miles back home from Suffolk!
I put him in contact with Adrian (Mole-T5-R) to source some front seats and my friend's return trip has now included replacing the one weak point of my car, two nice new biege leather heated seats are now in place.
Very sorry to see the olive green beast go, but pleased I will see the progress and it will get some more regular use. He has commented he loved the mapped M4.4 (by Oblark) on the way home.
New owner is called 'hippohead' on here so I think he's going to update this thread as he develops the car further... sticky tyres and DS2500 sound like they'll appear soon!
Will continue to hang around the forum as I love following the projects etc. and def a soft spot for 850's. Have also met and had dealings with quite a few of you, a decent bunch.
Update over
