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.

Delivery Day
Mid November, Brenton from Meridian tells me that the car has shipped, and TNT will have it available for pickup on Monday morning. This calls for a day of annual leave!
I race out to the depot to pick it up, only to be faced with a guy who didn't want me to have it. After arguing with him for 10 minutes, and then watching them use it as a forklift battering ram, I got it loaded on to the car trailer and home.
We took our time unpacking all the boxes and then offloaded the chassis into the garage. This allowed for the initial unveiling of the chassis as we removed the steel frame to see what we had gotten ourselves in for!
