Sorted now though +++

I'm kind of hoping that inline with some of your other awesome work on this car, you didn't have an A8 horn to hand so you modified one off a ship to fit :ROFL:

I think the horn on it I took of my land8 (land rover) for the same reason one year

I didn't have any A8 horns, but I did have Mike's old Passat waiting to be scrapped. Guess what horns it has now? :D

Mike, I still have exhaust from your old 8 that I won at 2012 A8 parts open day. I have been changing my mind too many times whether to fit it to my car or not and I think I have finally settled at not using it. I have decided to sell it but I think it would be only fair if I give it back to you if you would like to fit it to Dezzy's old 8 as I got it for free so might as well give it back for free and I don't know more deserving car for it.

Now I've had the Rat 8 for a couple of days and put a hundred miles on it I'm very pleased that the car has been save. The 4 speed is quite a different drive and it's running very smoothly. Plenty of life in the old bus yet. +++

Every day is a school day, I did not bu Arco gloves as it was working a bit dear with the postage but bought similar from e-bay Polyco Orange HD Nitrile disposable not powdered gloves and they are much stronger and durable than regular blue nitrile gloves I used before. Thanks for the tip.

I was not planning on going to Christmas meet but if you are and it is at Leamington Spa i might go as well , just need to measure if the exhaust will fit in boot of 8.
