That's cool mate I've also been to aphrodites rock.it must be the best feeling driving a gt in the lovely Cyprus heat my mum was brought up in Cyprus and I've been at least 14 times over years so no my way round over there lol is there many gts over there as I remember the island having loads of classics hanging around
I haven't seen another Clubman since I have been here - although I've seen pictures of another one on Faceache...
I popped-out to a classic car club run this morning and was the only Mini there - in fact, there were very few classics there as most of the with soft-tops had been left at home because of the extreme heat...
Apart from a few old Mercs and a Landrover the best car (apart from mine of course) was the Ford...

Shiny new gauges...
I decided to fit an oil pressure gauge - the TIM one seemed to be the best value and ebay the best place to buy (considering shipping costs, etc.).
It arrived quite quickly but didn't look right on its own... so I decided that it needed a mate... Back to ebay and ordered a TIM voltmeter... I also stumbled across a long plastic capillary tube for the oil pressure gauge (it comes with a short copper pipe) which looked to be a lot easier to fit...
So, a couple of days of spannering and wiring and we have new additions...

Took the car to a show today for the first time...
Ended up parked between a Morris Cooper and a Cooper S...
Got lots of attention and praise - particularly because I was the only one with the bonnet open!

Thanks...
I have only a few more pictures of her... I didn't pay it much attention to be honest - it had a 1380 under the bonnet and the owner kept starting it up and revving the tits off it to demonstrate the noise... I thought it a shame that it had not been kept more original...
