Busy week on this - new (well second hand but original spec) alloys fitted and balanced, wheel alignment done, cruise control fitted and the sound plus kit has arrived. I've also repaired the parcel shelf mounts and replaced the non-functional rear numberplate lights with LED ones.
Took it for its first longer drive on Friday and all was good so I think once the irritating little issues are solved this should be pretty solid.
I've also spent the week fixing pin-prick holes in the sealant under the spoiler and leaving the boot trim removed with a bucket underneath every times it rains. The flow is definitely reducing but water is still slightly getting in. I have now sourced a second hand spoiler with a good seal which is probably going to need to go in when I have the time.
Hopefully I'll get the audio upgrade in next week and get the car watertight, then sort out aesthetics. The alloys I've got for it could use a reconditioning but I think this will have to wait, the priority at the moment is to get the paintwork and interior tidied up.
It certainly looks better back on the stock wheels:
