Dammit, keep missing these things. Could've made it tomorrow but my DV is effed. Car not performing right, so took it out to check it and when I popped the piston out, the O-ring just fell apart. Borrowed another off a mate that isn't working right either but he's bunged it with grease basically to hold it shut. But I can't come to a meet with a car that sick :-(

Maybe next time, but that's what I say every time...

the locals now think im the local village idiot, i got more than one strange look washing my car while there is ice outside, and its getting dark

oh, and we will call it even Joe, emma took the matts out and washed the mud out of them for me \:D

Not sure what the locals here are going to think of me, as I'm giong to start washing the car once the kids are in bed ... so about 8pm \:o \:D

I doubt that it'll get polished, hoovered or anything else though \:D

I doubt it Sam \:D But I should get at least enough off so that you'll recognise it's a Coupe. Maybe even a Scotts Green one \:D It's pretty bad at the moment TBH.

Fortunately Joe, it'll be back in the nice warm garage straight after \:#

I know what a decatted bravo HGT sounds like with nearly no back box (my old car \:\) back box had minimum sound deadening)
And at full throttle it wasn't as loud outside as my coupe above 5k, but alot noisier below 5k.
I didn't get chance to wash my car today(fixing my mates Audi tt) so it looks a mess, so sorry in advance.

Looking forward to tomorrow.
