Looks pretty serious! No doubt she'll be running at her best when you get her back...

Great stuff. :)

Engine out is the best way to get at everything you need!

i've had the car back almost a week now and i have to say, it is totally transformed.
new clutch, full service, brakes, suspension work and a cambelt as well as a whole host of other work.

360's aren't cheap to run in general but when the car comes back feeling like new it's totally worth it.

So, my thanks to Alan and Dean at Wimbledon for looking after the car, keeping me informed on their progress and following through with their promises as well as keeping their promise of offering Petrolhead Nirvana members a discount on their normal hourly rates.

I'm happy to recommend them as partners and intend to use them again.


So, if you're sick of being treated as a second class citizen and then bending over when the dealer hands you a bill then Alan and his guys will come as a welcome alternative.

They could have at least cleaned it before handing it back... ;)

Looking good...

No it does look very good, and bet it feels a whole different beast aswell.

Look forward to seeing it on Monday...

(If this is what you call work then I'm in the wrong job ;) )

these sort of projects can either work really well, or take years, if you let it falter now you will regret it.

you want your P&J back on the road correct?

What a piece of kit!

I'd love to drive one, i think i'd do well to get my name on a log book - but then we all need dreams and things to work towards

Thanks for sharing Harsh :)
