Are you guys displaying your cars then? Is anyone going to bother? I don't want to be the only maser in the village!
I am not displaying mine
Thanks for that. @outrun breakfast sorted thanks to dandydons.
Not sure if that is breakfast covered for everyone that wants ? Outrun mentioned a mate coming is that you highlander or is it for Angus ? My wife is coming with me . Cheers

I'm going to bring the Gransport. Its still missing a front bumper but hopefully all will be well for Sunday. I've never displayed a car before as I've never kept one long enough! Looking forward to it. I'll need to pack a gazebo, fridge, BBQ, anything else?!
Last time I was there the F car owners club were there with gazebo etc and a plastic chain link fence around all the stand to ensure riffraff like wot we are couldn’t get anywhere near them so you could add that to the list? :)

Nice one, CJ

I'm nearly ready, although circumstances beyond my control may contrive to rob me of something I've been looking forward to for a long time...:rolleyes:


Just need to see if I can fix the Start/Stop functionality; which seems to be playing up

Collectig my car tomorrow from Stewart Roden, thankfully he's been through it and the warning lights were just a battery on the way out. He still changed rear brake pads, a pipe from the PTU, fixed the exhaust valve, fixed the glove box microswitch, alignment, and so on and will relieve me of £3.5k for the priviledge but at east i know it's 100%. F me, brake pads cost a load for carbon brakes! The rears are known to wear faster as the abs and traction is doing things while you drive and causing faster wear than the fronts.

The car has just run out of the 7 year service pack so i've spent nothing on it in over 3 years so i guess i was due a bill!

See you Sunday.

That is good news! Yes 3.5k will smart some but as you say, you have had 3 years free so man maths wins out :gnews:

Similar spent on the Gransport! Totally self inflicted! Guys at the garage said to just enjoy it FFS! Unfortunately my OCD wont allow it!
