I've never heard of those John Smiths AA batteries - are they any good? [badass]

You're certainly packing in the detailing! :woohoo:

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

Hi Phil took a little working out but i can see what you mean now, had not noticed it before
Think i will get Saric vac forms to do the canopy, as it is a bit large, might have to post the plug to them as the NHS dont seem to want me to go for my opp
Been looking at the front left side of the A10 there are 20 vents and indents in it, done 4 today
