No turning back now. Just keep going. Slowly. Feather that go pedal. 6 miles feels a lot further at low speed, with “Low Range” messages bonging at you every minute or so.
“Yes I know”.
“Yes, I KNOW”.
“YES I CHUFFING KNOW!”
Re boring 911 news - the rattle that was supposedly solved has come back with the cold weather. FFS.

Re: Your fleet running reports
i had a few hours of fettling today on the Lotus. I had a little list of stuff:
- reattach the battery where i’d disconnected it and fit a new cable for my ctek after the old one snapped.
- sort out the handbrake light. there’s a little lever which i presume had broken off that presses a button to turn the light off. a new part was £16, but after vat and postage worked out at £40. So as a medium term temp solution, i just hot-glued a lolly stick to the side of the lever. It’ll be covered by the shroud anyway and works perfectly. I’ll order the switch when i order some other stuff so i can share the postage costs.
- then i fitted seat belts because the harnesses were a faff on normal roads. i didn’t quite realise how simple/quick this would be.
- i decided i’d try wrapping the upper dashboard trims in alcantara-a-like, they were scratched and always looked scruffy. I’m not 100% on the results, but it didn’t take long and cost about a tenner. i’ll see how i feel about it - i can always take it off and try something else (repaint/wrap).
- now i need to get it MOTd again and back into service.
