I felt like this several times while owning it, keeping hold of it though was the best decision I've made in my life, The positives I get from the car is so worth of the naggles it also throws up.

Haha Dodger, no chance I've put way too much into it. Well I was trying to wire up my 3 auxiliary gauges and couldn't get anything to work not even the lights. All sorted now though thanks to a helping hand of my Dad. Just got the the dash rails I've recovered to fit properly now and then get the dash in and then get it running right.
