Great thing about having a mechanic for a son: getting work done on the TR8 now takes up a lot less time.  We do some project together and others he tackles by himself; in return, he gets to drive the car whenever he likes (although obviously, at this time of year, excursions are limited).

AND, occasionally, his friends come over to get some work done on his LBBRGC (Little British But Really German Car).  In this case, new coil-overs for the Mini.

BTW, anyone else notice the “New Mini” isn’t so mini these days?  Just curious…
