Cheers Tezza,
I got there eventually, but one thing I haven't considered is that ther LPG tank is empty :roll: and the fuel is about 1/2 tank, so I may still have issues getting in the driveway with a full tank of LPG.
I did come up with a nifty trick getting out of the driveway though :P I accelerate with my foot on the brake and the rear end lifts enough to clear the exhaust all together, unfortunately the opposite happens when reversing :?

haha! I have a bit of room on one side of the driveway to come in at an angle, will have to go fill er up and check again under worst scenario situation.
Am about to go out and put the lows in the blue EBII, so they won't be going back into the lane anytime soon :P

No worries matey! All done, but i'm not gunna start another thread in the garage, just post a few things on the EB in here, as it won't be getting any special treatment and so far it's just been tidying it up and running repairs.
Pic's soon on the EB's day in the spotlight :D

Nope! Wheels and front SL springs have been in for over 12 months now. Been keeping an eye on tyre wear and all is good, so I havn't bothered.

Looking good there Mick. Nice height but hopefully no scrapies on your driveway.
