Cheers guys I'm well happy with it and I've had some great feedback on it tonight. Here's a pic or two from tonight's meet with my car club

So yesterday I found I was loosing water and my engine bay was covered in muck my Engine looks like this:


Engine temp was rite up and had steam coming out my bonnet from it on the rocker cover from where its hot... I also Found my fuel tank vent valve hanging lose:



My coolant is empty to so obviously I've got a leak...so after a bit of inspecting i Found the problem,The pipe on the left on the inlet was split, that's where I was loosing coolant from, it had split rite on the kink. Let her run to get hot and it started spraying out of it.

Here's the broken bit:


So chopped it down and put it back on:


Now she's running ok again, not losing water and the temperature is fine an the fans kicking in fine.

Then on to the washer jets not working, popped the passenger side one off and pulled the leaver... No water... So blew down the pipe and tried again... Success it worked so obviously got a bit or muck in there blocking it so at some point and sort it out, but there working for now .

Little update, not everyone's cup of tea...how ever... I received some bonnet raisers today to raise the rear end of my bonnet .



So get these sprayed Arden blue and fitted now .

Never seen the point in bonnet raisers, how much of rise you going for

No idea what ever it does got to figure out how they go on now this happened earlier:







Any ideas guys?.

They go on th bottom of the hinge i thought :lol::lol: that gave me a good laugh tho

i think you have to bolt the plates onto the bonnet where the bonnet arms would normally go and then bolt the bonnet arm to the other holes.

I was goin to say that but that would be a 2-3 inch lift and would look crazy

So bolt them under the bracket with the bracket on top of the plate?.

How much did you pay risers if you dont mind me asking ?
