FEED ME MORE!!!!

Nice backbox Phil, never knew they could make an inward rolled one. They are a very decent company too, when the baffles came out of mine after about a year, I emaliled them, they sent me a new one free of charge next day delievery (even when it was out of the 1yr warrenty period), which was of better quality too. So if anything goes wrong with it dont be afraid to email them I know people who use their exhausts and are happy with them

Jony, Phil is one of the leading drug dealers in Essex, he doesnt just own his own house, he owns about 3 houses, all 6-10+ bedrooms, all with en suites, indoor pools, arcades in the basement and all sorts. He also owns lots of land too which all has underground bunkers which are top secret and undetectable which he keeps and grows/makes all his drugs. Hope that answers your question

I remember that house party we had at one of his pads once. Mental, just mental, how he remembered the names of all those birds i'll never know.

Needless to say we need to organise another!

got a small update

the runabout passed its mot third time in a row
with only advoisorys to get the rubber front brake changed so will get that done ) not bad as its on 144k

also with help from stainlessmoles guide and help from a mate done the rear head rest conversion on the runabout using height adjusters from my mates old escort seats







i again used 16v si head rests as they tilt ack and forth but i have spare 1.4 headrests if i change my mind

also i last drove the si to ace cafe in london car drove really well but when i got a mate told me i had bulb out and noticed this



the plug had melted so bought some new ones from halfords along with shrink wrap so going to solder it on during the winter at some point

and also while at ace cafe while polishing the si i noticed this on the other headlight



dont worry its not the head protector

but my 2 or 3 month old genuine ford headlight cracked



no idea how it would have happened as it had a headlight protector must of been a dodgy headlight

oh well now on the hunt for another

also in the next few weeks im off to get some more parts powder coated for the si

thats it for now

The runabout is looking good phil, nice work

Thats pretty bad with the headlight, never seen that happen before, and cosidering its NOS aswell, strange!

At least its not the protector though

Keep up the good work

Good work, the runaround looks mint.
That headlight is crazy, especially considering it had a headlight protector on.

good work phil

headlight is a mystery though

theyre built to withstand the heat, so how the hell that happen lol

can you not get hold of a new glass or just a good condition one? cos the reflector in there is still mint


i dont think them headrests suit, id have gone for the 1.4 ones like you did on the Si

theres few modern cars out there with tilting rear headrests, no need to be competetive

small update my mate wired in a rear courtsey light into my white fiesta runabout easyjob only took 10 mins take power from the front light and run it along the headlining and round to the back cut the headlining and theres a recess in the roof for the light lense to pop in sorted



makes such a difference finding things in the dark


also bought a set of stainless nuts and bolts etc from samwatson to replace a number of them around the car on my si, boot hindges, door catches and fuel filter holder bolt got a few more to get sorted though




and yesterday i dropped off a few more parts to the powder coaters, which i pinched from the 5 door si i recently broke, the bar which goes from the cross member to the behind the bonnet hindge, fuel filter holder.....both of these are being done in black chrome same as my radiator fan and all the other bits i done done a year ago, and front single wiper arm in satin black



and after visiting the powder coaters i went 25 miles down the road to basildon essex and popped into gaz shocks to order a set of fast road/track coilovers for my si


like these



should be made up and ready mid- late january


and i went to a meet with fcgb in september and my si got a decent pic in performance ford mag as they were there
