Ah ha!

In that case I would register, tax and insure it in the UK and then go 'on holiday' to N.I.

Incidentally I don't think that currently there are any Covid travel restrictions between Northern Ireland and Eire

Thanks autobackup. No there are no such restrictions but we are currently subject to a within county and no non essential foreign travel restriction.

It kind of suits me to store it and plan on a proper trip when I can. Right now, the logistics of planning around car ferry trips and quarantines and all that are too much of a pain. So storage till maybe June depending on how vaccination and the waiting period after works. It’s a totally FWP but everything is up in the air.

Mine was delivered straight to Paint Guard last Wednesday for PPF and I collected and drove to my apartment on Saturday. Not on trickle at the moment.

I must admit I haven't taken it home and up my drive as yet, as its quite steep and I'm apprehensive it will ground the splitter out, need someone to check as I drive it up.

I have a nasty resonance/buzzing from inside the snorkel, sounds like something is touching the inside of the cover so will have to remove it and check.

Really pleased with it though.

Thanks - I got the Ohlins springs powder coated the same colour as the panels. I was going to get both done in the Lambo orange or the Focus ST Orange but quite happy with Ariel standard orange colour. Always wanted an orange car Image.

I’ve got Orange as well, I always wanted an Orange or Kermit Green car after I saw the GT3 RS colours.

Hats off to Steve and the service boys yesterday. 500mile service done in double quick time so I could get back to Glasgow in a day. 16hrs driving.

Time to explore the entire rev range and boost level 3

Great service from them. Did you trailer the Atom down Alistair?
