Thankyou for the welcome, just a few queries does anyone know where I can get the underside waxoyled and painted (to protect the chassis)
Alloy wheels refurbed, also do you have a meet in wiltshire? Could do with meeting up with a few off you for ideas.

You could really get under there yourself for the chassis mate. its not hard work and its good to have a picture of your own vehicle in your own head. Its not like you need to jack it up to get under it
I would stay away from waxoil personally, its not what it used to be. Bilt hamber laboritories are turning out some pretty good anti rust products but I always think a solid chassis with a layer of paint with annual inspection is the way to go. waxy stuff gets old and cracks and lets the water in. A fresh spray of paint over a freshly pressurewashed chassis every year will see you right.
I know a great place for wheel refurb in gloucestershire. They have a triple coat wet anthracite that pops like mad in the sun.
This was before I got the center caps back. £50 a wheel.
