Nice

Think will the cams be a pretty much bolt on, plug and play kind of upgrade? If so, I'm interested.

It's the whole cam assembly change and then set up of course and then remapped, but pretty much take off in a correct order and fit in the correct order. If it's a sensible figure it's the next big thing on mine maybe!!!!
More funs.....

Fuel Cap....... you need to remove the central locking mechanism this is located behind the light cluster and is held on with two screws. Undo them and the pin will slide out with the unit. Then behind the neck of the filler there is a metal sprung spilt ring remove this. You should then be able to fold back the rubber seal around the neck of the filler to the plastic of the fuel cap unit. The next step is trickier! Just below and above the finger recess of the fuel cap there are two clips. These are hidden as they are holding the fuel cap unit in place behind the panel. I carefully eased a screw driver covered in masking tape as well as the surrounding area to undo these clips. Although you may be able to access these from inside the car???. Once done the inner plastic part and the fuel flap will come off as one unit. Knock out the pin with a small pin punch and hammer holding the fuel flap and hey presto the fuel cap is off. Smooth it off and replace in the reverse order.
edit....
Just stole the picture from the for sale section............ this shows the fuel cap comes off as unit with the inner part unfortunately it doesn't show the clips which are near where the finger recess would be when the fuel flap is closed

Look look tidier without Peedo bear and the tow strap gone.You've spent alot of wonga on this man it's good to see all the accessories/extra's coming off it's definately heading more towards a classy looking motor now.
Pressed plates will look top on it too,shame about the spacing though.

The pressed plates will look spot on mate, shame about the spacing though
Its hard to believe the police are pulling people over with all the riots going on, obviously some officers have alot of time on their hands lol
