Yesterday I made the 200 mile trip up to Bolton to have a little bit of work done at Mafia HQ.
I think the cat was trying to tell me something. She purred smoothly all the way, returning just over 30mpg with a load of parts in the boot, the A/C on and I wasn't hanging about.

Day one.

After a brew and a chat Mark set to work at removing the drive shafts and I helped remove the battery tray.

I had the privilege of being there to witness Manos' cat being quite literally gutted :eek:

It was impressive to say the least watching the mafia making light work of removing the old lump - in less time than it took me to replace brake disks and do an oil change :LOL:

I had a sneak preview of what is going in and it looked stunning - my lips are sealed :angel:

Oh, and the comment was made about BMHQ being over-run with 'uglies' :LOL:
 
Looking good there Manos - must be very exciting watching the transformation of your beloved Cat (y)

Hopefully won't be too long before I'm following you in there - GG is getting quite poorly these days :cry:

Couldn't have said that better myself John. Nick and Mark just got stuck in without a chin scratch and barely a bead of sweat, well not until Mark attcked the Y-pipe. :LOL:
 
Having witnessed the dynamic duo in action myself, and being privelidged to have worked with them, i have no doubts it will be a cracking job well done. I also know the little secret :D
 
Well it can't be much of a secret if so many people already know!! LOL!!! Looking like Bolton HQ are cracking on with it though, nice one lads.
