fixed the fuel gauge - it just needed a good pull back in the right direction no idea how it had got stuck where it was thou, maybe a short circuit put too much power thru it?

And now, here is the truth: during 2 years, 5lab will get into the car each evening, play a cassette with engine sounds (B200E of course), and move the steering wheel as he was driving for real. And because Nessy won't die after 2 years, he'll sleep into the GLT each weekend during 10 years lol

If Nessy doesn't die in 2 years, I'll do everyone (including Hugh!) a favour and take it away on a trailer one dark night....ready for it to be converted into a 400bhp monster Redblock/Penta 2.5 16v turbo monster!
