That bottle of Barolo looks much more interesting!An exciting upgrade just landed, a nice black friday deal (15% off).
My metrovac died a while back and research led me to this. More punch than the metrovac, which only had enough oomph for the wheels. This bigboi should be good for all tasks!
That one is for the weekend. I'm more excited about the bottle of Bourbon just behind the box - Bulleit. Had a bottle last year and enjoyed it, good deals on alcohol this time of year. just getting the stock for the Christmas break!

good work esp in this weather and time of the year. I also noticed (well was informed first) some bubbling on the drivers wing :(Washed it! (Yesterday)
It was a race against the daylight, but i managed to wash, clay the paint and protected with a spray sealant, gloss levels are amazing! Not the best photo, but it’s all i have
on a sad note, i noticed some bubbling of the paint on the bonnet
The centre rear brake light may give you pain unless you have a convertible.Recently discovered the CHMSL (Centre, high mounted, stop light) is leaking water into the boot/trunk and into the void in the rear quarter, between the rear of the rear wheel arch and the rear bumper.
Therefore, especially as it's currently the UK monsoon season, check you do not have a small swimming pool in your N/S rear quarter, courtesy of the CHMSL.
The N/S boot trim is mostly fixed with magnets, so easy enough to pull back and check to see if the panels are wet.
Currently driving around with a recepticle wedged between the bodyside inner and the boot trim, to catch the water, while I wait for a new CHMSL to arrive, from Germany!
Ford Mustang life!
Another black mark against Ford for mounting the CHMSL on the exterior with only a thin, adhesive foam gasket to seal the body to prevent water ingress.
Oh, and don't get me started on the O/S rear brake caliper.
I need a replacement although apparently there are none on planet Earth!
Can't help on the light, that's another shocker for quality control. I'd heard the main UK warehouse for ford had discovered asbestos in it so literally no stock in the UK but that was back in September when I needed a new dipstick holder and everything was coming from Germany.
