Serviced mine last week, after getting it back from "storage"* a couple of weeks ago.
* (Glyn's garage, where it lived while I had his car in for welding- I'm running out of room at the workshop )
This week I've been quite busy with customer cars, but Tuesday I helicoiled the tops of the IDF's where the M6 studs had pulled through - those big old Gp1 air boxes put a lot of strain on the carb tops !!
Today, after making the fatal mistake of poking a screwdriver though a rusty scab, I mostly spent repairing and painting said 3" x 2" hole in the top of the O/S rear 1/4 !!
I forgot to get a picture of the hole, all I need to do is re-do the black, and fit the window back in.
Still got to MOT it, but I'm confident of a pass
Tomorrow I'll be fitting an exhaust (on, of all things a Daihatsu Terios ) and fitting a std x-member and engine mounts to a nice white RS2000 that I'm collecting from the customer in the morning.
Maybe I'll MOT mine on Saturday ? Or shall I leave it until Thursday of next week

Hurrah - just checked online and I have 2 months left on the MOT, so sod getting another 12 months tomorrow!
Wheels are done and am picking them up tomorrow from SpitnPolish.
Few new bits from Escort-tec and Burton to fit and going for a drive tomorrow, can't wait. Haven't driven the RS for about 7 months, so looking forward to getting back to some side ways action. Might even get round to fitting my snazzy sun-strip that arrived today!!
