Hi Ben,

 

OK thanks regarding the sills, would you be able to fit the sump guard tomorrow as well and we can see how it goes and if it isn't working for us we can always take it off. We would like to pick up the mini on Thursday morning.

 

 

Thanks Darren

Will you have space for the midget if I bring it down to swap over with the mini?

[JDImini]

Hi Ben I've pm'ed you about our phone call

 

Thanks

Darren

Hi Ben, Hope you are having a good holiday, shame you couldn't have seen us taking the mini, you did a great job. Plenty of smiles per mile on the drive home.

 

Saw another mini on the island about two minutes from the garage loads of waves

 

Thanks again great job

Darren & Jack

 

PS I hope the midget comes out as good

Hi Darren.

I'm so glad that you had a safe journey home

Hi Ben,

 

We've both had a bit of a drive this weekend and it is great fun and actually quicker than I thought it would be

Glad to hear that you are both enjoying the car

 

Roger has given me copies of all the photos on a USB thumb drive which i will get into the post for you.

 

Colin has started to strip the MG so we will know in a few days what needs doing and get the quote prepared.

 

Thanks

Yes certainly.

 

I have been photographing it as he has been stripping it. So far, he has removed the bonnet, bumpers, wings, doors, lights, trims etc and its now in a state where we can prepare a more through quote.

 

I have to say, it looks quite funky with no outer front end panels!

 

Good news, the sills are perfect so won't need touching.

 

Cheers
