Did you paint those beam mounts - they're shiny as they come from Pug aren't they? I was going to do the same to the new ones I'm ordering on Mon.

Not done alot to the Rallye for a while,its ran spot on over winter Cool

Fitted some of the gen Pug plugs off here and it runs smoother than it did on NGK's Thumbs up

Got some new wheels to fit so thought would give it a spring clean Smile

Also greased up the Roller bearing WB bushes and the rear beam .

Slight surface rust on some bolts,but it is a daily driver so was expecting this,paint is intact though and no signs of rust stains etc on any of it Big grin

Oh yeah the only other change is I fitted a Scorpion exhaust,the Magnex got right on my nerves Yes

Looks awesome, even after being used. Cool

Wish I could get mine to the same standard.

That Magnex has become a proper slag now, certainly seen some action! Laugh

Must be on to it's fourth/fifth owner now?!

Knew you'd get annoyed with it eventually, just like I did!
