Saw the final part of Britain's Biggest Warship . A wonderful 3-parter - Very insightful and interesting look at the commissioning of HMS Queen Elizabeth. Really well done by the beeb. Nice one, I'll have a look at that. They did a very good three parter on the Stephen Lawrence case, think it's sti...

That's what my A539s are at all round.

First impression of the ZZSs is that grip and feel seems good, but jeez is the ride harsh on them compared to the Yokos. I'll have a look at whether they ramped the pressures up next time I get the chance as that could be contributing, but today I was jiggling about all over the place. I can confir...

All the best Mark, sorry to hear that. Nef's mantra puts it very well.

You are right. They all look equally awful these days - as do F1 cars. (Maybe It's my age...)

I thought Porsche's efforts since 2014 have all looked pretty tasty

Which tyres did you go for Duncs?

Clutch and accelerator cabling I'm told are the things to take on road trips, not that I need to tell Chris that! You can see them both just above the fire extinguisher in the boot :D Alternator belt was a new one on me, but now also in there... The Lotus 7 Club used to take a Sprinter full of spar...

Bravo Mr. Speedingfine. Fair play indeed. “So I put my tent and tools under the bonnet next to the ECU” :lol: Three edits and I still missed that horrible sentence :mrgreen: I meant to mention that I tried to buy a cheap intercom system.

Absolutely superb Chris 8-) I'll agree with you as long as the 24 year old kit car is reliable for our thousand mile journey :mrgreen: I used to read the 7 owners Club touring stories in their monthly magazine and always wanted to try it myself.

Caterham 7 Supersport Modifica Grand Touring No laughing at the back please.

Yeah that and the size of the thing. It looks like Liberace's alarm clock to me, sorry

Never had a problem at Bedford but then I don't have RBs... I can understand your paranoia, but have a word with the organisers when you get there and I'm sure they'll help you out. Or unplug your rev counter
