Took her for a first family day out on a Trip to Beaulieu.

Was impressed by the car, by Beaulieu, and extra pleased when looking at the Top Gear cool wall that they have there, its got the Rocco in the Sub Zero section!!!!

Eventually ordered my exhaust trims :clap:

Also arranged to get the lower grill sprayed like many people have and the door bump strips colour coded

Dunno to be honest! Wanted to give the itg a good clean anyway and fit the heat shielding i bought for it.

Last 3 year warranty service so didn't want to give them any excuses (although all is fine to be fair anyway!)

Cleaned my ITG filter. Here's a picture of how it looked before - not bad for a year and a half's use!:-

I got hold of some Zircotec coating which I've applied to the filter housing as in the 1.4 it sits close to the exhaust manifold and in the summer you can really feel the heat on the filter so hopefully this will help a little:-

Gave it a good clean, and discovered that the passenger side foglight lens has been cracked by a stone :(

I took mine out for the first time in a week (I have a very painful shoulder which may need surgery), warmed her up chugging around a bit and then thrashed the nuts off it round the lanes, with venom. I then iced my shouder, again, but it was SO worth it :)

Had its third service and first MOT today. First time in over 10 years I've kept a car long enough for it to have an MOT!

Seemed very frisky on the way back and that's with Revo turned to stock!

Deacon..How much did you pay for your 3rd service? Its just oil and oil filter isn't it?

Did you have the brake fluid changed too?
