Check out leatherique. I’ve use it before with good results. Be sure to soak them in the rejuvenating oil for days and days though.

I may be staying the obvious, don't leave it in the headlight area, reroute it somewhere that you can get to if you ever need it. I have mine behind the plug for the tow hook.

I know my tyres will last me two years max, so I am happy to search for and buy (heavily discounted) tyres baked up to 24 months ago.

A trickle charger is the key for non-daily cars, IMO. Not easy when it's outside though. Is a solar battery minder a workable solution?

No, not that I’m aware of. I found them in a Facebook group: Boxster Outlaws.

I’d use any old wire laying around to connect the jump battery to that special terminal in the fuse panel - no need...

Some would say that an MR2 would fit in you driveway just fine - but I haven’t bought the genuine umbrella either so I guess that means that I agree with you!

I'm not sure how you would, sorry. I imagine that there would be a pin on the alarm unit that gets 12v if the ignition switch is working. I just went to each for my workshop but it's been moved by...

Miata need it for weight distribution as their engine is in a particularly pedestrian location.

Well I'm impressed, again!

I imagine that your printer wouldn't be able to interpret any colour as 'thin white' so having a layer of white would mean that they are no longer lit. Perhaps a fine...

I'm torn, but given the modernising approach that you've taken all over the car, I'd say that this change would be in harmony with that general approach.

I'd definitely try the eBay options at that price.

Get the bumper off first and eyeball it though, preferably with a pressure tester attached, it may not be the radiator?

Cool, got it. I could be wrong, but I think it's conventional to say a clutch is engaged when your foot is off the pedal, and disengaged when you have depressed the clutch pedal.

It's hard to...
