Here's a small update on project QPV. Not on the road yet thanks to the head lamp, but I thought I'd have a look and see how worn the clutch is, as replacing it will cost more than the car did in parts alone. I was hoping for less than 50%, but did I get lucky?

Project QPV has hit a small bump in the road. A non working head lamp wasn't just a blown bulb, but also a bit of wiring damage and a head lamp module that has left the party early.

I feel like I could use an Arnage based challenge, but I can't decide on what. The idea to run challenges on myself is that it gives me a defined 'finishing point' at which I will sell a car and to help me not get attached. We'll see if it works. Suggestions welcome!

it's still pretty noisy, though it's not moved a wheel in ages now. What to do with it...

When the MPW arrived, it very much did not want to run. Coincidentally, that was because two plug leads had been swapped around. I thought that sort of auction trick was a thing of the past at this point (especially since it was a timed auction!)

It doesn't look like much, but the Bentley T1's engine runs very sweetly, especially considering it has been stood up for ages
