It did its first trip yesterday and today, Milton Keynes and back, so far I have discovered that the front brake pads don't exist, the driver's side front top mount is dead, somehow the rear tyre catches on those 2 bolts that hold the rear arch trim on (but only on one side) and it is not in any way stable at motorway speeds, I'll swap the lower control arms over from the t4 and then stick brand new bits on it when it's finished, as the seller did say something about needing rear arms, I've already got brake pads and a spare top mount so that's nice and easy, tomorrow's job, it's not great to drive as it is, oh and the cigarette lighter socket doesn't work so no phone charging capabilities, it also likes to blow the radio fuse unless you take out whatevers plugged into it very carefully, I'll nick that from the t4 as well for now.
