Another short commute from our digs in Prestwick to Dalrymple, Ayre for work on another great example of a 1995 MGF 1.8 mpi, again with loads of original features, and with very low mileage at 28k. The car had been purchased about 3 months ago through Mathewsons, and delivered to its new residence.
Really good to meet Mike, his wife Traute and their lovely woofer, Rufus. What an interesting day in Mike’s company, with lots of stories shared between us.
Work carried out today; head gasket replacement, cambelt service, alternator belt, hydragas top up, 52 mm throttle body fitted and health check. Also booked in was replacement of the underfloor coolant pipes, but stainless ones were already fitted, so a bonus for Mike. New stainless exhaust back box fitted, which really suits the car.
Thank you, Mike, for your great company, hospitality and keeping us warm with the heaters and lots of cuppas! What a beautiful location, thanks for the tip on the viaduct/sunset opportunity for a photo. We look forward to seeing you again next year.
Back to our fab digs for the last night here, and yes steak is on the menu for Jon again and the Strictly final! 😅 🥩 – https://ift.tt/363HZbI
