Matt i see you got a TVR now? 
oh yes .. so chuffed with it , ive wanted one forever ! make sure you come to the next run ! do you still have the porshe ?
Yea, although i hav'nt driven it in a month (Main reason why i didnt come on the tunnel run) but im picking it up from the Garage today o/
But, i bumped it and got to wait untill March/April or poss May till it can be put in the Garage (Place i use is booked up for months).
Some pikey keeps nicking my badge, so i might get that smoothed and the front + bonnet sprayed as the rest of the car is in really good condition execpt the stone chipped front (No supprise being a daily car since i've had it nearly a year and my Step dad had it for 16 years!)
Comming up to July and im in two minds wether i want to keep it. Its fine except power really, but i love the handling. I might strip it soon and put harness in (no over the age of 2 can sit in the back anyway) so might gain a bit on the power to weight :P

Brilliant, what was their solution to increase the volume? I know there are a few different methods...
He cuts out the scilencer chop chop . and cuts two pices of pipe and welds it in place .. !
i will try and take a pic of mine later ! if the car was not so hard to get under . i would have done it my self . but for 50 quid .. saves me getting dirty ! give me a shout if you get it done . and i will pop down with you

about an hour , quite quick . phone him first tho and book it in ! dont just turn up or he may have a car on the ramps, and you will be there for ages . but then i suppose you could check it out see where it is ect. reason to go for a drive too !

Great pics guys, someone organise another day out, my car is fixed and working now - not sure how long it will last 
......yep, saw you this morning...Cleppa Park!!
And here's another
for D's skills with the lens 
Did you?
What car were you in? The BMW I guess - too many of those around for me to recognise you straight off.
Yep - you're right, they're getting a bit common now, aren't they....time for a change methinks!!

.....dunno...too long ago now!!! BUt if it was southbound in the morning its pretty unlikely!
