1) the varnish wasn't dry
2) Old Man did it as I don't have steady hands
3)I'm not keeping the 'wheel.

Just been informed I have use of a neighbour's drive. They've never had a car on the drive (only had a 90s Accord; garaged and not seen for years so suspect long gone) but apparently would like one there for 'security' now. Going to stick the S90 over there I think as it'd blend in well.

Excellent. Does it mean the S90 will be sticking around for the longer term as a result?

Not sure tbh, it may, it may not. I'd like to just for the noise it makes...

850, only thing running at the moment. S90 is still on SORN and has no MOT (I've had no time to fix it between work shifts and my own life - Old Man won't get off my arse about it either which doesn't help), whether I start using it or not relies on the result of the Civic bureaucracy, which is currently stalled in any case: I'm waiting on an engine receipt from the seller as evidence to send to the DVLA, so I can in turn tell the insurers. I could bring the Civic in theory (it's still taxed and insured as a 1.4, and I know enough backroads, not that there's any reason I'd get shafted round here anyway) but I'd have to ask for the Mini to be moved out of the way of the garage and my mum will have a hissy fit about insurance if I tell her what I'm doing.

Smart looking little thing. I always wondered if Rover should have done an R8 version of this...

I remember the days when you liked the Civic because it wasn't barryed to death.
