Good man!

Not sure which car I'll be in, but I'll be in something V300ish.

I'm on late shift this week so Friday's out for me. Working flat out to get the manta done though, just the small matter of removing the brake servo to weld up the bulkhead, then replacing seemingly every wire on the whole car. :roll:

Electric spagghetti fear. :shock:
Thankfully, it should have minimum electric spagghetti compared to the obscene hundred weight that comes out of moderns.

Ah now, see what happens when you google for your own user name? :lol:
I'll be in the Dolomite most likely, if I'm free, Rich might be in my 340, or his lovely Y-plate 3-door, suppose we could roll up in a pair of 340s though? Either way, I should make it, has a venue been settled upon? I have suggestions but will keep them to myself if there's already a plan.
I may be able to persuade a mate who owns a Panda selecta to come along and show us how CVT should be done! :shock: :wink:

Yeah, getting that coat as I write....

The Briar Dene? OK, s'pose we could do worse. :mrgreen:

What sort of time?

I was going to suggest the Stuffed Dog on Tynemouth Front Street, or stop on Front St, buy chips, then drive up to the Spanish Battery and admire the charvas in their Saxos, innit? sm36
