Day 2 of 3 – NORFOLK
After leaving our digs in Sheringham, this morning, we made our way along to our first call of the day in Mundesley.
Allen’s R reg MGF 120 mpi (paint code JRJ) was due its cambelt service, so this was carried out, along with all other service items. Always lovely to see his Mum, who lends us her drive each time to work on Allen’s cars, plus she makes a cracking brew.
It was good to see Allen again, briefly, when he popped over from work to drop off his other spare key-fob, as he wanted all three sets programming to the car, as only one of them was working. Unfortunately, one of them was beyond it, as the circuit board had degraded and something in it had blown.
We then headed on to our next call, which was located in Willingham St Mary, for work on Nigel’s very low mileage 2004 TF 135 (paint code JFM), that he’d recently purchased from Matthewsons.
He’d decided to treat the car to a soft-ride-kit and an MGOC Supersport back-box. So these were fitted for him today. Thankfully none of the bolts sheared off, we’d even taken a contingency of spare upper suspension arms with us just in case!
It was really lovely to meet Nigel this afternoon and have a chat. Thanks to him for many brews, cake and biscuits, very welcome. We look forward to our return next spring for some further work.
We’re now in our digs in village called Gillingham, just outside of Beccles. I enjoyed a very early morning, albeit soggy, walk along the coastline in Sheringham this hoping to see the sunrise, but it wasn’t the case, but thankfully the rain held off for the rest of the day. – https://ift.tt/YwRaUkv
