Lights work:

doesn't sound much, but it takes a lot longer when you can't really see what you're doing!

It has to be! Next week my mates having it in his bodyshop for the windscreen out job, then get it back & start working through the 1,602,379 little jobs that still need finishing. :roll: Then... it could be MOT time. :?

No, it's a council owned lock-up & it has no electric. I have to keep the door shut as it's surrounded by old folks housing & tenancy agreement it states the 'garage is for storage only, working on motor vehicles in prohibited' - they seem to be fairly strict in enforcing it... The old dears net curtains were always twitching when i undertook any work with the door open, so it's best not to risk it.
