Well I just cleaned mine, changed the oil, did a compression check 170-175 across the board, changed the spark plugs (thanks to Mikeyg) and silicon greased my door locks and hinges. So it should keep it happy into the new year.
Anyone else done anything?

Fitted a perrin EBC solenoid removing the fiat one and the pvr that I had. Now its boosting to 1.2 and settling on 1 bar but is much smoother.
Fixed my HIDS I hope stop them flashing.
Now I have found I have an oil leak. all seams to be collecting on the boost pipe out of the turbo, it started snowing again and is a bit dark so I quit. I just dug a gap under the car to get to the inspection hatch too.
