Cheers Mike,
I've been in contact with Nick and that would definately be a special visit, takes about 5-6 hours to drive up there.
I think I'll have to do it though for my sanity if nothing else, I need so many details of the little bits and pieces which i could get in one swoop with Nicks wagon.
Unfortunately the rear is not original it should have the longer back with the internal spare wheel, but this is how we bought it and I can't afford to change it back!
Thats a very nice C8, see your clearing the garden then!
