In the previous article, the repairs on XPO were finally completed and repainted. However, I soon find I'm unpainting the A-pillar!
With the welding finally finished, attention turns to painting the A-pillar. This several-month stage doesn't end well!
Just when I thought I was done with welding, I realised I had best tackle the wheel arch repair before committing to paint.
While the big cut hadn't gone quite as I hoped, welding in the repair panel goes a little better. Quickly the car comes back together.
I simply couldn't put it off any longer. Time to put on my big boy pants and fire up the grinder. The day had come for the Big Cut. And after all the build up, it could have gone better!

After weeks of turmoil with the BX, I wondered if it would even make it to FotU 22. But it did, and the festival was fantastic.
After battling the fuel leak, the original leak was still present. After a bad judgement call, I have even more leaks. Will I make it to FotU?

I've put off using the modern classic due to niggling issues. Will some maintenance (and an MOT) for the Citroen BX restore confidence?
Being unimpressed with the performance of my existing snow foam system, I wanted to give the Autoglym Polar system a try. Turns out its ace!
