The car has returned to the UK without any serious issues; there are minor issues listed above but none of them are show-stoppers - barely more than inconveniences, with the exception of the lights, which will be refurbished before I next use it next year!

Have you considered a pair of René's headlight lenses Neil?

Not yet; this is still in planning.

The mission to return to Potsdam has today included a car drive from Evesham to Oxford; a bus from Oxford to Luton; and now we wait in a hotel until half past four tomorrow morning. Then a flight to Berlin; a Regio train to Potsdam; a tram to the bus interchange; and a bus home.

You like the easy life Neil !

It's this bloody retirement. I never get time to sit still.

We're back in Potsdam now, with just the French Thing[tm] on the drive.

One of our esteemed members has fitted these using silicon channel as a seal, having first completely removed all previous remains then refurbing the lower section. It looks really neat and has the advantage of being splittable should anything go awry.
