Cleaned the 220 properly for the first time this year today.

I also modded it. Virtual beer tokens to the first person to spot the mod...and it's not inside!

...miles are clocking up now

Clear indicator repeaters?

looking good there,how is the 216 doing is it off the road and did you sort that wheel arch rust?

Yup, clear indicators

Yes, I totally sorted the 216GTi and she got her new MOT a couple of weeks ago.

Welding on the arches (yes, plural!), discs, pads, driveshaft, thermostat, full service, more welding after mot failure (sill), rear bushes, brake clean up / adjustment and then an Italian tune up for the emissions

She's actually still down at the garage (I took her to Sterling Automotive near Eastbourne who did a first class job) and I have arranged to pick her up in a couple of weeks time, so I'll upload some pics then

out of interest how much did it cost to get your wings sorted, my back one needs a touch of attention

This;

...cost £140 to get through the MOT, which involved rubbing, plating and painting.

Haven't seen it yet mind so can't tell you how good it is

thats a good price,i paid £150 for one new arch and paint,about the same amount of rust as on yours,but mine now needs a new clutch

so it is off the road at the moment,i plan to change it in the next few weeks so i'll get some pics of that uploaded. Looking forward to your pics.

Interesting to read about the rear arches. I'm also having the same trouble on my SEi!

£150 sounds reasonable. I think I will get this done in the summer...then get it waxoyled to prevent reoccurance.

Mine isn't quite as bad as that in the pic though, but it's getting there! It's certainly got worse over the winter though with the wet salty roads.

Such clean whiteness on a 3 door 200. If only mine hadn't blown up

Clear repeaters look good.
