Several bumps in the road...….
agreed a price with autodefiance as they had a Galvanised Richards Chassis in stock (!!) I wanted to paint the chassis prior to install,and was quoted £380 Decided therefore that I was going to do it and Alex at Autodefiance said he could allocate me some workshop space over the weekend to paint it. Bought some Buzzwweld GIO as the paint, but now turns out there's no workshop space!!!! So i'm now having to flap about a get a trailer, get the chassis home, make some stands and a temporary tent to paint the bloomin thing before the job starts on Monday 2000 D2 TD5 - ahhh bless 2006 D3 - no longer with us and sadly missed 1997 300tdi d90 - now with electrics that work! - now with a brand new custom made soft top fitted …...…...............….new chassis now all fixed and driving like new 2010 D4 alas no more, but a lovely colour (Nara) 2016 D4 battery magically fixed with NOCO charger |

Some of the trailer places are surprisingly not expensive to rent for a day.
