Ah cool beans. Will see if my mate in Lancaster's around so I can kill two birds with one stone. Hope it's a smooth drive back :)

TaDar.......

London is a LONG way away with no roof/doors!!
No hiccups on the way back apart from i discovered it really doesn't like normal unleaded, super only, and theres a small oil leak from the sump gasket, which will be fixed today along with an oil change.

Very happy with it, i love it already, justs needs some things on it changing to suit my style not the original builders.

I'd totally forgotten about this with all my goings on! The interior looks really good! Is it alcantara or does it just look like it in the pic? That steering wheel's huge :lol: Get an 11 incher in it. Is that 14???

Would it be worth me dropping in tomorrow, or would it be in bits?

Interiors pretty cool, but its just grey carpet, black/yellow vinyl not alcantara.
Steering wheel is pretty big, due the steering is pretty heavy due to the wide tyres, you need the leverage! Want a smaller one though, might need to spend a few hours in the gym to turn the wheel!!

Its got two pressing issues at the moment, small oil leak from the sump, requires a new gasket, and a alternator problem, not charging enough with the fan on

Not worth dropping in unless its in the evening, got to go back to work tomorrow, boo, in the dax, yey :)

Thanks

It'd be maybe around 8pm I think?? Maybe even too late and dark :-? Could be earlier, depends on traffic, could be more like 6pm. Will give you a call when I'm closeish to see if it'd be worth it :) Know what you mean about the leverage. They may be light, but really need hussling round corners. 10 laps at a trackday in the Caterham saw me sweating buckets on a hot Sunday!
