What a disappointment

Wow! Good service from a postie. What a concept :ohmy:
Our long time letter carrier got spooked by a neighbourhood dog and was moved to another route. Now we have an endless
rotation of posties that come round at random times and never seem to last very long on the route.
Luckily our local post office is only a kilometre away, but when I miss the delivery they don't receive it till the next day and it drives my instant gratification gene nuts. :bang:
Right now I am waiting for a set of Mike Satur pedal covers and a set of new badges from Capricorn, and it's driving me batty.

Must be patient............................ :unsure:

Glad to see you're keeping the very rare, in Canada, MGF in original condition, preserving the heritage of the marquee :bust:

I'm keeping half the suppliers in the UK employed as well! :ohmy:
The badges and pedal covers came today so I am happy with the mailman.
I finished painting my square spokes and have the badges installed already. :woohoo:
Got to say I am very impressed with the Mike Satur pedal covers. I choked a bit
at the price but after seeing them I can see why they cost what they do. :broon:

I have the MS pedals and think they look great.

Just to let you know Rich, the accelerator is a bit fidly to fit and I had to smooth the weld bulge on the front of my brake pedal to get the cover to slide on.

Hard to see in my pic but the clutch has an 'M' on it, the brake has a 'G' and the accelerator has an 'F'. Satur also makes a version with 'TF' on the accelerator as well for all you 'modernists' ;)

A quick update on my exhaust woes.

After 10 days of messing me about, Toyosport suddenly found that they didn't have the exhaust in stock after all. This is despite the ebay listing saying they have more than 10! :nonod: So I got a paypal refund.

I had another rummage around ebay and ordered from another supplier. Two hours later, i get a phone call:-'Sorry we just sold the last one.' :rant:

Another refund. :pinch:

So I found another supplier and emailed them to confirm that they actually had stock of the damn exhaust, and YES! :woo2:

Confirmed dispatch yesterday! :yesnod:

Here's hoping it's the right part this time! :pinch:
