Saw this but didn't reply in time.

Well. Did you take it for a run to Manchester?

It depends where you had to leave it when you were there, I guess!

No I didn't Huw. It was absolutely chucking it down when I left . So I decided to drive up in the company car.

I am in Hereford for a meeting relatively soon, if you pm me your mobile number I will give you a shout mate.

Of course I will bring the coupe smile

I'm working this weekend - gutted! It'd been great to have seen you at Joes. I haven't been to his new place yet.

Are you getting the strut brace?

Dlongstaff I had back to metal respray, Zender Skirts and bumper, quaffe lsd, 6 speed box and plus interior.

Got to say the car is everything I want it to be now. Had all the mechanicals done around 2 years ago. This was the finishing touches. smile

Haha H_R smile

Not quite yet. But I am a big believer in using it and to hell with the consequences. That said, I will have a few jitters when I leave it unattended for the first few times. But what can you do? laugh

Did you get the brace fitted, Toby?
And did Joe give your car a clean bill of health?
