I did gliding when I was at school and before I went to sea but apart from a few times flying light aircraft I hadn't touched the controls of a glider for about 50 years until around 2010 a forum member arranged an evenings' flying at Usk Gliding Club.
It was astonishing just how quickly it came back and on the 2nd flight i had control from the top of the winch launch right through landing it.

I remember hearing HoveDan's yell on his first ever glider flight as it went up at about 45 degrees within seconds of leaving the ground

Another odd thing, chatting with the instructor after we had put the aircraft away it turned out that we had both been to the same school, Farnham Grammar, although he was there some years after me.

I took this exact approach, reran new cables from an amp in the boot, could also run from the back of the headunit.

The translator does not translate technical terms well

The last time I was in The Mall, Phillip was still alive and we were at one of Her Maj's garden parties, but as Submariner puts it 'it's a mirage a huge glitzy monument to greed and consumerism.....behind which is endemic hypocrisy, corruption, slavery, misogyny, racism the whole shooting match'.

Plus Alloys all day long

I’ve not seen anything that really look better and obviously a straight forward fit on coupes

Driving up into the mountains in Tenerife we came across this red 16V owned by a local couple parked up by a picnic area. Our conversation was a combination of Pidgin English and sign language but we gleaned they'd had it from new and mileage is around 120,000 km - it was in very good nick. We showed them a pic of our re 20VT from a trip to the Alps a while back.
It was such a great surprise and really made our day.

B&B now booked

yes fancy stitched seats with side airbags, center panel in car color, 16 wheels, red engine cover and brake calipers. I will add the photo later ..

Hi Joe

Pleasure, they were the 35W version - can’t see them listed online (inc Amazon) currently…

There are 50w kits, but not tested them yet…although I do have a spare headlight assembly..so watch this space for a v2 update to the guide.

Oh and for all of you who said LED’s would be an MOT fail - pah, the local independent pasted mine with LED’s and yes they checked (as they failed the car initially not on the LED’s but as the plastic had deteriorated on the headlights and was causing too much scatter - quick polish and the scatter was gone! Another 12months on the cars and I didn’t have to remove my LEDs!)

New one on me Simon and looking at the past events they've attracted a lot of clubs. One for the future perhaps?

Quite new mag I think which I picked up for flight to (Tenerife - yes I know…!).
Very good six-page feature ‘Buying Fiat Coupe’ which I believe is pretty accurate and written well. It showcases Stuart Baker with his Scots Green 20VT.
