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.

Breather Tank
I want to run a closed cooling system, so I needed to fit a breather/expansion tank. This will catch overflow under pressure, and release it back into the system when the pressure lowers and creates a vacuum. Its a shiny aluminum 1 litre tank, and it will have lines in from the bleed, EGR and radiator cap. I will feed back into the thermostat inlet on the block. I have it mounted on a fabricated bracket up front under the nose cone as I don't expect to have to open it to often. I will probably mount a small catch tank under it as well.
