Hi all

It's been a couple of years since I posted, but the EK is now finished and on the road - as of last Friday. It drives like a dream with surprisingly few issues, that are easily fixed. I'd like to extend my since thanks to all the Forum members that have offered support, technical advice and parts (sometimes free). I could never have finished the car without it and greatly appreciate the kindness shown by many Forum members. Anyway, you enjoy the pics - and I'll enjoy driving it!

Cheers, Steve

Sweet mate , looks a treat :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Well done guys on completion of your project, looks great! I reckon it takes a big commitment to start a project and to keep the momentum going to finish it off to the quality you have there. Hope you enjoy many trouble free miles. :thumbsup:

Regards
Stephen

G'day Steve,

The wagon looks absolutely awesome! 8)

Can I ask a favour please? It looks like you've got a moulded carpet, similar to the one I need to fit into my wagon. My rear carpet has a heap of excess, and is not moulded around the seat-bit of the floor. Could you please fold your rear seat forward, and post some pictures of how you have laid the carpet up to/under the rear seat? Interested to see how you have done it (before I mess mine up trying to work it out).

Cheers,
Harv
