Hi.
Just to drop a note on the XXLlent support that MNR is giving me so my build is as smooth as possible.
Not only before buying they (Marc and Chris) were great trying to sort some issues (transport, final specifications, storing bits I bought outside
MNR, etc..),;
Not only during collection they were fantastic (reception, loading the trailer, showing the place, etc...);
But also during the build when I needed some small bits that I was unable to find here in Portugal, they sent'em very promptly without charging a
dime (and having costs to send!)
For that,
THANKS MNR

Joao,
Keep up the good work. The photos look like you are cracking on ( yorkshire term for its looks like its going well )
Its worth it in the end - Marc and Chris will always help however / whenever they can.
Plus the building / builders on here are genrally a good bunch 
What about a MNR Harogate to portugal run ----- Hang on at 15 MPG in the v8 maybe cheeper to charter a plane and fly it over

If everything goes as planned I intend to take the car back in the trailer to UK for the SVA and then a fun run to Portugal 
[I'll have to sell the car - Ford Mondeo TD DI - and trailer right after getting to UK]
Meanwhile...
Build until the 3rd son borns as dippers will be the all day event...

Great to hear it's going well Joao!
Should be a great trip back down to Portugal.
A plan of mine is to take the completed car down to Jerez via the east and south of Spain... Absolutely unreal roads upto Ronda down there...
Might have to pop in on Portugal on the way home!?
Anyway gotta get back into the garage before trouble ges back from work! 
Chris.
yea. They are doing a good job. ive been back a fair few times for little bits and pieces. and they aint grumled once... even though i put them out
time wise!!
cheers
I will quite happily second all of that...
My car to be collected in 5 weeks and Chris and Marc have been great to date....

PS - i used to live in Jerez and did the trip to Malaga quite a few times......very nice trip instead! ....its amazing how fast a Ford Focus Diesel
will go!!! hehehe

MNR Deadlines:
When I order my kit I told'em I was in a hurry (quite a few personal issues, like son, etc...) and they made a nice date for pickup, and even so
they were able to get it earlier!
That Jerez meeting could be an MNR event! I would gladly go there to meet a few folks and take a few trips 'round there... how about a weekend
plus a couple days?
