Not long to go now. Got a few jobs I need to do before we go:

New Front brake pads (Ordered and going in this weekend)

Harnesses to fit - Currently having some adapters made up so that I can run 3 point harnesses on the seatbelt clips

Take rear seats out - Might do that bit in Germany not sure yet

Also thinking about having a silencer put on the exhaust just in case they get jiggy with the noise testers. I've been keeping tabs on some of the forums and they dont appear to be particularly tough on noise as was being predicted before the season kicked off. I might chance it.

Got big bonnet sticker to go on as well should look good on the photos. I might get some TOW stickers done for the laugh but I dont want to tempt fate lol

Hows the rest of the convoy shaping up? My mate thats coming on the 206 GTI has just spent a shedload of cash on it (service, engine mount, etc etc etc)

my bro just got his 172 serviced, two new michelin exalto's and an MOT due lol.
I think mine is alright, brakes are OK, tyres are 1500 miles old, I'm still really scared though lol :D
might get the helmet out and polished :)
