Looks really smart in Ultra Red.
Paintwork looks decent from a distance?
Good time to start a project thread again

This:

Really nice pictures and the car looks LOADS better after a good clean following your long drive home

She scrubs up well! It does sound like the previous owner has looked after her and taken it easy.

It was normal dailydriver car even in winter.
Thermostat is partly open all the time, it is running cool. Is there somewhere thermostat diy? I did not found it from diy section. Is original thermostat only option, it is backorder from france 2-3 weeks. I can get Behr or Gates thermosthat for next morning much cheaper.

I'm sure i've heard people using 172/182 ones to run cooler (well you don't really want that in Finland I assume lol).
