I rather like the interior which is both well put together (no rattles) and pretty good quality. It is however filthy and could do with a freshen up. This will be addressed shortly.
The initial assessment went quite well. The underside is in very good condition and the previous advisories of a damp steering rack and corroded front brake lines don't look to have worsened. Both sides will probably clean up fine.
Having driven it another 20 miles or so we discovered the thermostat is probably stuck open, which accounts for the temperature gauge I thought was non-functional. It does actually start to read when stationary, but cools straight off again when on the move. Annoyingly thermostat replacement is a cambelt-off job on these, however I have a work-around for this, which involves installing a thermostat in one of the top-hoses. Apparently this is a common fix on Rover 75s too.
The cool running, very short runs and long periods standing all appear to have contributed to condensation and thus mayonnaise in the underside of the oil cap. I was a bit concerned this could be a symptom of head gasket failure, however the coolant is fine and it's exhibiting no other symptoms of HGF. I'll keep an eye on it.
Initially it ran very well this morning, but after 15 miles or so it started to hesitate and misfire. We hooked up the diagnostic gear and a few codes came up. They relate to the EGR valve, crankshaft position sensor and camshaft position sensor. We managed to clear them and remove the EML, but the crankshaft sensor fault kept returning.
On the cosmetics front we tried and failed to remove the dent in the rear bumper (a job for a warmer day) and my neighbour tested some wax treatment on the rear 3/4 panel. We concluded something stronger is required!
So what's the plan? With the sensors being relatively inexpensive I'm going to get one of each and see what difference they make. I'm aware the actual problems could lie elsewhere, but this seems a reasonably inexpensive place to start. I'll also look at some options for the thermostat work-around. I'll not get a lot of time on this over the next few weeks, so it'll be a bit of a slow burn. I'll collect some parts, start to tackle the interior as and when I can and then do some fitting up in a few weeks time. Watch this space...

This is just a scene from my Spanish project from a while back. Obviously not my best, but I believed I owed my comrades some of my builds in my prolonged absence. I'll post more if anyone cares to see.
I was taking photos of jewelry that my sister makes for Ball Jointed Dolls.
She has this great little box with a ring for your bjd and a matching ring for you.
It's genuine silver. My sister is goldsmith ;)
It is Fashion Month in our town, two famous malls will be presenting this kind of show one after the other every week. Great chance to practice portrait photography.

She is the barista at the coffee place near my house. She works both in Hernando and in Olive Branch Mississippi. She is going to school for Business and baking and one day wants to open her own place up. By the way, this is also my 161 st photo of the year!

Sorry, this is not really 'artistic' or anything. It's more like a snapshot haha.
This is what I do when I'm stuck in a car for an hour.
Yes, I blow balloons in a car and then make funny noises with them. :D God, I'm weird....
Anyway, just to inform you, I love grey shirts.
The CoolTower Rotterdam • 2018 - 2022 • Ballast Nedam Building Projects • V8 Architects
The CoolTower is being built in the center of Rotterdam, in the district Cool, between the Witte de Withstraat, the Schiedamsedijk and the Vasteland. An eye-catching white residential tower of 150 meters. The tallest apartment building in Rotterdam. 282 apartments with living areas that are between approx. 60 m2 and approx. 360 m2, there is something for everyone. Each apartment has its own balcony or terrace up to approx. 95 m2. In addition to the top crown, the white tower has a striking central crown that marks the height of most of the Rotterdam towers, 70 meters. The design is made in such a way that high windows on the corners give residents plenty of space to enjoy the breathtaking view. The balconies connect to the outside to a great extent. The construction makes this possible: the core of the building supports the floors with columns within the facade.
This day was a race day. I had been running since Friday afternoon and during all day. So, there is no photos with my fuji today. I was carrying my sports camera and took some photos during the day but nothing good... I've chosen this photo as the photo of the day because there is no more... Sorry.
I finished the race wirh 32h50m in 137th position over 2500...it is the best result ever for me.
The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall, England. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 km (1.2 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 km (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining omes that house thousands of plant species, and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The largest of the two biomes simulates a Rainforest environment and the second, a Mediterranean environment. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.

This image is part of my "doors" project.
I decider to concentrate on very common and simple everyday use things, doors. But I look for interesting doors.
Vanuatu warrior dancer ... this guy was awesome ...he and his troupe had just performed a whole bunch of dances and finished with the warrior dance... wow ... very energetic and violent with the spears ... but so cool that they keep up with the old cultures ...

We took a trip to Cornwall last weekend and made our first visit to the Eden Project. I love looking round gardens and the only reason we've not been here before is that it's such a long drive to Cornwall! It seemed like the perfect opportunity to practice with my lensbaby optics. I have no idea what these flowers are though so if anyone can help me caption them I'd really appreciate it!
The cabin we are staying at has a little gated garden. I was unable to unlatch the gate so I had to take pictures through the fence. I took this picture in the morning before we left.
Personally I never feel more at home than when watching my favourite film.
