Need to book a trackday with the Fiesta, think will do Anglessey again.Have put some BlueStuff pads on and sorted the annoying exhaust blow, was a clamp that had come loose so loosened the other off, bashed the centre box I added back and then added a new better clamp to replace the loose one.Jag wise, behaving. Have set up "Torque Pro" on the Android screen to try and monitor the DPF, had a nightmare trying to pair Bluetooth Dongles as Android Head Units with Car Play are a bit selfish with the comms and grab BT and Wifi, got annoyed and tried it with a USB one and it worked first time so have wired that in permanently behind the dash to the USB leads from the head unit.

Will then just check it each year and re-apply some rustproofer, reckon if left another 5 years and it would have rotted through and failed the MOT, doubt I will have it in five years but a bit of time spent now means it wont be a problem whilst I own it or for the next owner. Plus, when you come to sell it, its
