drove mine off the driveway and parked it on the road (legally now )....total trip of about 20 meters without a breakdown

When you say 'drove,' do ya mean under it's own steam or do ya mean steering it behind a towing vehicle?

own steam....let it warm up for 20 minutes on the drive first though !

Is that why you did the warm-up exercises on the old weights?

Insulated the roof with some aero-foyle type stuff - should reduce the condensation and noise. Pics to follow.

D1 V8
New engine in and mated to auto box, replaced sump and fitted rest of loose bits and now just waiting for the rad thats been recored, going to collect that tomorrow and get the old 8 rumbling by next weekend hopefully.

D2 Td5
Dropped the roof lining to find 2 of the 4 drain outlets broken so I have Araldited them back in and waiting for that to set.
Whilst the lining was down I fitted a Sirio "bee sting" CB antenna using the spare hole in the rear of the roof and it looks quite good without being an obvious CB antenna.
Once the Araldite has set I'm going to park facing down hill, re-fit the tubes and see where the rear leak is coming from (both rear tubed intact).

Another quiet weekend!
