For the few that still check here regularly, I still have this and have been meaning to post an update for a while so here it is...
Not much has changed, mainly just general maintenance and it no longer lives at my parents house as I now have my own garage.
The car still doesn't get used as much as I would like, me and Matt (Jester) did a full service on it at the start of this year (cambelt, charger belt, WP, plugs, refreshed the fuel system, oil/filter etc) as I was intending to start driving it more but then I found that the sills had rotted through in the front on both sides so have just had it parked up all year trying to find someone to repair it.
I finally managed to get the sills done a few weeks ago along with the bottom of the doors which had always had an issue since I bought it (bubbling below the plastic moulding and the bottom of the doors had also started to rust through), it cost me quite a lot more than I would have liked to pay so once again, I just parked it in the garage and didn't really want to look at it.
Yesterday we finally had a dry, clear day so I took it out for the first proper run in months and was reminded of why I haven't been able to sell this thing, even though I have considered it multiple times, the car absolutely flies and is so much fun to drive even on the crappy roads we have round here at the moment.
MOT is due a week tomorrow so I'm hoping there is nothing major needed, then it will probably go back in the garage until spring. Not really got any future plans but I have been debating putting the original plate back on for ages so might finally get that sorted.
Here are the most recent photos I have of it, 3 were taken when I got the tyres changed 2 years ago (finally managed to find some 175/50/14's) and then one from the Rallye meet at OCD last year where they actually gave me a little trophy!
I'm not on FB or anything like that but I'd be up for a G40 meet some time in the future if anyone fancys one.
Cheers all -Rich.
