Hugh, some amazing pictures, looked like you had a great time, that's an experience you'll remember. Been through all the pics! Some really arty shots there, really like 035 of Aymat's GLT. And then there are the Hugh humour shots!

Some funny ones there mate.

Some awesome pics there Hugh... the old 340 looks superb, ofcourse in auto flatter mode

Doing it Hugh-style...

Not that my 360 has ever been involved in a picture like that

Awesome pictures mate...most inspiring. Anyone want to declare a state of 'roadtrip'? Through mainland Europe to a Ferry in Denmark to the Motherland (no, not Holland...) in time for Vallakra this summer?

cheers

look at the temp - that was on its way straight into the red so had to slow down

recon i'd have done 110 otherwise (eventually)

and..

it was legal \o/

That's exactly why I posted it

100mph and nearly boiling over

I could post almost exactly the opposite from Nessy - 100mph and almost on 'cold' due to a screwed thermostat (I presume). She held a nice solid 100 for 10-15 minutes, but I didn't want to push my luck by going any faster with all that noise / vibration from the rear.

cheers

Only one car around with those lights

Post by **RandomHero** » 06 Jan 2006 07:56 pm

Hugh,

what was the matter with the car??

Post by **340GLT** » 06 Jan 2006 07:58 pm

And why are you not wearing any shoes????
Cheers Adam

Post by **5lab** » 06 Jan 2006 08:22 pm

the spines on the propshaft rounded off, meaning.. no drive

shoes were a health hazard by this point

Ooohhh working headlight washers

Eh, Aymat?

The Foggyjames method of 'taking it easy' before the car is fixed properly.

Good pics, haven't managed to trawl through all of them but looked a fun trip. So was it Aymat who broke your propshaft?
