The one I have will be fine... I did the calcs. A bit low on cranking power but it should do fine when It's properly charged and not drained every 5 minutes.

Unfortunately, all my funds are allocated to other things for a while yet and like I say, It should be fine once a full charge is rammed up it.

I wanted to come down last night just to go and see. hehehe

Yeah, looking forward to trying to get down. I'll have to play it by ear at the moment as money is mega tight BUT I REALLY want to have a go! If I don't make this one, i'll be at the next fo sho!

I watched back the trip home video I made last night using Nic's old digital camera. Made me want to get out and have more fun in it! We have a busy weekend planned but I hope to get some diagnostic time on the electrics and hopefully at least pull a fuse out of the problem circuit if possible. I was considering taking out the central locking system and just using pov spec locks etc. Would be nice to be able to open both doors, boot and filler cap with one key!
