Very nice Gareth. Is the steering wheel pink or is that just the lighting in the photos?

No its Red And Black....
Not really what i wanted for it. Want a wood rim really but had that there so it'll do for now. Spend so much at this point i may wait till i earn a few quid before i spend more on it...



And Aidan i hope to have it on a few runs before the next MTM.. :wink:

Hope. I'd say i know a good few people she does. I've been running my own business in Gorey for the last 12 years so got to know a good few people there. Where in Gorey is she from?
