My wife said I needed a hobby.....so imagine my surprise when I showed her a picture of a kit car, and said "Let me build this.."......and she said "I think that's a great idea!" So this blog is a chronicle of my efforts to piece together a Birkin S3 Clubman, and a tribute to my wife's patience and understanding.

Mirrors
The mirrors should have been easy. Two wing mirrors screw into the windscreen frame, one main mirror glues onto the windscreen. The wing mirrors are EMGO motorbike mirrors. All good except I was sent Yamaha mirrors which have a right and left handed thread. The Birkin windscreen only has right hand threads. So I had to replace these with the same mirror, only both with right hand threads. The main mirror, I painted the body black (as always) and used an industrial glue to attached it to the screen.
