Anyone else found ebay's website really temperamental in the last week? I've used it on two different computers, running different operating systems and browsers and it is just as bad on both.

How can one of the most ingenious cars of all time leak rainwater so much?

    Because the ingenious designers liked holes :P

Hmm... got some gauges to fit. Thought it would be cool to have a volt meter and ammeter in the centre console but seems like an ammeter is a pain in the arse to fit... Is it worth it? I want it more for looks than function as I understand that a volt meter is more useful...

    Ooh ok... I guess if they are fused correctly they should be fine but still. Think I may pass. Got 3 gauges for a bargain on ebay so not like it's a problem.

    Oil pressure is the most important one :)

    Got an oil pressure one to fit, all the fitting gear is in my basket on minispares :D Also got a vacuum gauge, might just fit that next to my voltmeter in the centre. Then I can add another gauge above my radio (maybe a more useful one than a vacuum :P)

    Focus Superbud, Fox forks and shock. Got some Conti Rubber Queen tyres on it resonantly and they are fantastic, grip well in the dry and the wet

Just pulled about 5 metres of wiring out of my loom that wasnt connected at either end. I also found about a dozen scotch locks and wrapped together bare wires under the electrical tape....

    I found some scotch locks today too xD They were what was causing my engine to not turn off, so I reused them for something more useful.... haha

    I hate scotch locks and electrical tape. Soldering and shrink wrap are what should be done! Wrapping looms should be done with non-adhesive tape too!

    I'm planning on rewiring the engine bay all into one fusebox once I have the engine out. Will be done with solder joints and shrink wrap... and non adhesive tape :P hehe I don't mind electrical tape for little jobs, better than leaving it open.
