The pfl S8 or your dash swap S8? (I think I can guess the answer )
Hopefully the PF will be finished first. The dash swap will probably happen after Spa, since I don't want to add any extra weight before that

Sat unloved, possibly on grass, in Scotland for six years. Surprisingly, the seats are still fine, as is the paint so it hasn't been covered in leaves or moss. It just hasn't moved or been used.

Didn't get much done today other than ordering a pair of hinges for the driver's rear door from Prestige, and sorting out the driver's side rear caliper.

The caliper appeared to be seized, but after a bit of poking it turned out the piston was a bit too extended because the pads were nearly gone and so had just got stuck.



Pushing it back in started it moving and then it freed up nicely so I stuck one of the old discs from my S8 on it, as they barely have a ten thousand miles on them, and a new pair of pads. I'll do the other side when I can move it.
