First drive
 
Tonight I took my car for its first drive. This is the first time the car has moved under its own power and it was great fun. I probably should have put some air in the tyres first. Now i just need to fix my brakes!!

I thought starting it was good fun but driving it has really motivated me to keep going

Cheers

Nice one David!

Thanks Skov and Stot...

I just need to sort out my brakes, weld my roll bar stays and a few other fiddly electric bits and can then (budget depending) order my bodykit!!
