LOL.

I could do with some help myself, really, not quite there yet on the physical front. What is it specifically you are trying to achieve?

I would certainly offer my services to help you Paul...but I WOULD be more hindrance than help. Although I'm sure I would learn loads! ..not exactly beneficial for you though.
Sorry. ;)

Paul, try not to look at it as one big job but four small ones. Attack one at a time and go at it in small chunks..

It's like the old saying - it's perfectly possible to eat an elephant as long as you do it in small bites. Same applies..

The first jobs to do are the ones that potentially will make you money...

And what's all this about a Clio? Scrap it. there's at least £100 for your XM restoration fun already!

Did you receive an email from me yesterday? I've not seen a reply...
