Hi everyone,

I've had my MY2000 f for 3 years this month and have used this forum as a resource heavily over that time.

I've had a headgasket and spheres replaced using people recommended on here and everything else below fixed or replaced myself. New dampers, pu bushes, steering potentiometer, fan resistor pack, radiator, thermostat, servicing, coolant alarm, rust repairs, IACV, door bushes, bell crank,new drop links I'm sure there are things I've forgotten to list along with a pile of stuff lurking in the living room waiting to get put on 

Braided hoses, new disks, pads rebuilding my front brakes and replacing my rear calipers because the hand brake mechanism is seized solid on one side is my current project whilst it's off the road for winter.

Its Copper leaf, i had just been over it with a clay bar given it a cut and polish, then topped off with a ceramic coating which is why there's masking tape over the trim
