It moves (first time out of garage)...
... when I push it. Ok, it only moves when I push it, but it was such a nice day yesterday, I thought that I would put the wheels on, get the Viento
off its stands and out of the garage. Much to my relief, it rolls, steers and stops without any important bits falling off. The next step is to do
some adjustments to the bonnet shut lines now that I have the aero catches on and then its on to the electrics.
By the way, before anyone points it out, I know that the tread patters on the rear wheels are the wrong way around. In my excitement, I put the
wheels on the wrong sides.
Feels like I've made some real progress - looks like a real car now and much meaner now that its at the right height.

You have to love the proportions and size of the Viento, it looks a beast. In the nicest possible way, of course .
Now I want a chrome roll bar. 
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!
