What Have You Done to Your Cougar Today?

Today, i had intended to swap my ROUSH 21mm rear ARB for the BAT one but having got DG up on the ramps i could see that no way is that bar coming out without disturbing either the tank or the Subby. I'm not prepared to do either so the ROUSH one stays put. I don't have the energy :giggle:.
 
Al, it seems to me that the Roush is already an upgrade over standard right?

So if you left if be there's no disadvantage really. Not as though you really need more suspension reflex on the bumpy streets of Nottinghamshire.

That said, if you need any help just ask. I'll be on board to help even if only out of curiosity!
 
Gave the Bitch a wash and wax - finally time to try the new pressure washer and hosepipe I bought last autumn. Good little piece of kit - small, light and plenty of power:

A blast over to remove the worst of the dust and pollen, followed by Madcow Mojito snowfoam, another swill then Madcow Candy Bath shampoo, another swill, dry with microfibre towel then a coat of Meguiars Techno Wax. She thanked me for it (I think) by starting first time both times I moved her - before and after the "bath".

All out of wheel cleaner so didn't get to clean them properly. Still, she looks a million times better than she did three hours ago! :D
 
Looks great John!!
The Nilfisk are a decent piece of kit and the one you have rivals the Karcher K4 on performance... Definatley a good choice ;)

I was like, "Why are you doing this?" but then I was like, "LOL Okay what's the worst that can happen?"

Gorgeous.

Thank you for keeping her in good condition. I've got the spanners out.
 
I felt guilty Chris - she was sitting there on the drive covered in dust, pollen and spider webs.....and I fancied trying the new pressure washer. So it happened - she's still a pain in the arse and I still hate her.....but you've just got to love her when she's clean. Perhaps a bit of "sorting out our differences" before she leaves for a new life :LOL:
 
John, you didn't need to do this but I'm smiling because you did. Fact of the matter is that you don't need to feel guilty about anything.

I look forward to taxing and insuring her at the start of May - T is still happy to pull the trigger when I'm ready.

Bush bump stops Chris. Roush doesn't have them. I've never had an issue at all, just wanted to try the BAT one. They are both 21mm.
 
Fitted a Mondy ST220 brake fluid cap courtesy of Andy - must release a couple of BHP surely:LOL:
No I didn't clean the reservoir while I was at it:devilish:
