Where did you get the plastics and tailpipe?  Customs shouldnt be a problem if bought within the EU..

My plastics were from DC plastics in the states ( £48 customs charge!!) and the tail pipe was from spain ;) all turned up now. I have my wheels back as well so now i,m on with finishing the old girl off :) just a few little things to get like swinging arm rubber and chain block rubber and a air filter cage.  ;D ;D

You're doing a nice job of it Simon.
I see you have a ve front guard on it. VF front guards are readily available.
That looks like an oem seat cover as well with the 'M' embossed into it instead of printed which I've never been able to find. Well done. :)

This is my 414.
