Too hot to sleep this morning so went for a drive and tried out the new exhaust this morning. 2.5" catback longlife. Car completely standard other than boost guage and sports cat.

Thanks - look forward to it Nismo as missed the last one.

JKD - its never been modified so i guess it's standard ride height. Roger of Poweritalia had it previously and other than an apexi gauge its as close to standard otherwise. It made it up Brooklands hill without grounding so must be over 150mm that they claim will cause problems. That said the cheapo Aldi jack wont go under without a couple of extra planks. rolleyes

To be honest it wasn't the one I was looking for but I lost my bearings and found it by accident. I'd used google streetview to look for something crossing under the M25 - but my sense of direction is pretty dire at the best of times. You're talking to someone who when travelling from Kent to Manchester got off at oxford services and then traveled south before realising it adding c40 miles to the journey.

I can't get your links to work, they just go to your home post code.

Can't get them to work so I've deleted them. Bit of a mistake there putting in postcode so ta for letting me know.

As for where it was - It was rock hill road I think just north of junction 4 m25. Got to it near Hewitts farm way. Street view was good to use to recey the area, but finding them in practice wasn't so easy.

Ah okay. It looked like here:

http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&c...l=16&dir=0&sty=r&form=LMLTCC

Where Button Street goes under the M25. It's one I've filmed in a few times. I got photo'd on Google Street View in my old Coupe on Ship Lane after going through the 2nd tunnel.

The Button St one looks good (probably must be even better with the barrel roof). Another early morning beckons I think...
