Cheers bud. Updated pics will come soon. A few more changes in the winds too.
For today though, the car has been sorted in so far as the coolant has been changed, along with the oil (using Valvoline 10w60 race oil), filters etc. Tomorrow is MOT day and then a couple more things in the coming days

Another agree to that. Such a shame
But people like Adam here give us hope
Great news on the MOT mate. Enjoy the car once again!!!!
It's back on the road! Could do with a new battery, or one hell of a good run to get it charged up! That can only mean one thing. ROAD TRIP! 
I'm helping out at A & E Automotive now and again. Currently working on a Porsche Turbo conversion
The LCR's Livery is getting redone as well courtesy of *****************.com
Good times! Shame the weather is causing traction issues when I go out

dont know if they would interest you but i pay 106 a corner for vreds
I've run both Paradas and Vred's, It depends how much your going to use the car, if it's only going to be a summer car then I'd say go for the Paradas, I personally think they are better than the Vreds in the dry, but if your going to be using it all year round go for the Vreds, in the wet they are great
Cheers for the advice about the Vreds, how do they stand up to track abuse?
Barney, I'll be about most of the weekend. I'll be at A&E Automotive tonight and tomorrow doing a Porsche turbo engine conversion, pop down or give us a shout
I thought about bringing it to work today but the wet put me off, sounds wimpish I know, once the new tyres and livery are on it'll be a different story!

Speak to Tim about track use his done 2 track days and held up well.
You still got my mobile? If you have text me we'll sort meeting up. I need tyres too
I can't remember dude, I'm at the workshop tomorrow, don't know about Sunday. Took the LCR out tonight from Stourport to Kidderminster to get some fuel. Bloody thing wouldn't start after filling up because of the battery! Luckily I had my booster in with me so I rolled it out of the way and hooked it up.
It needs a good run to help me decide whether it needs a new battery or not. I think it does. Then the next question is - a lightweight one or a normal one!

I was originally going to get an optima yellow top due to its gel based high CCA and deep cycle ability.
however the cost of lightweight and 'uprated' batteries is so high i went for a Bosch S5
Also lightweights go flat quick if the car isnt used regularly, like 2-3 days

Ah I see. I thought Race Batteries were designed to live off trickle chargers but didn't thing that were that High Maintenance!
After having a look, this one seems to match up:

It's quite cheap too. Which is nice...
