Yep - it's awesome. A bit snug though, especially in my current "winter coat" format!
I had a shallower sump fitted earlier in the summer, which means it doesn't bottom out on bumpy roads or speed humps, and that has made a world of difference to its usability.

I know what you mean about the sump. An old colleague had a similar 7 kind of thing and we lost the sump on a hard landing after a humpback bridge on the way to the Crooked Billet in Wokingham one lunchtime. Shallower sounds very sensible. Harnesses, I suppose, are also helpful to keep you in the car in similar situations.

Morning everyone!
Bonjour Phil!
Not too taxing a day today but it should be an interesting morning, so looking forward to that.
Better, however, is poets day that'll turn Friday into Fri-yay with a trip into London for dinner.
HapPea Fri-Yay! xXx

Top of the morning from a calm and hot Cape. Gym, coffee, contractors and snag lists today. Enjoy your Friday. Oh and figuring out why the Car Protection System warning light came on this morning on the QPV. Hadn’t driven it for a week so maybe just a low battery.

Morning all, early start as I have to get some work done before catching a flight back down South.

I am a bit sluggish though as it was a heavy late night…………

Morning all. Very sluggish today after a business social last night. London was almost normal levels of busy.

Half day so taking it a little easy.

Have a good one, all

Totally agree the news is dismal this morning only lightened up here with the French journalists still bemused over Johnson's recent antics.

Off to Devon for the weekend. Fancy dress party on Saturday - I'm going as Guus Hiddink - more doppelganger than dress, although I have a Chelsea jacket....

Has anyone ever looked at the News and said, "Oh that's all quite encouraging"? The whole point of the News is that it is (apparently) supposed to be alarming and miserable. The mystery is why we seem to like that.

Try starting your day with these:
