Sounds good to me, hopefully I'll be driving a car and not a steam engine this time

Tom, ask and ye shall receive...

Hopefully Chris and Blib will sort something out around that timeframe - if not then I'm sure a run can be arranged anyway.

Keep an eye out on this forum - we did a run a couple of weekends ago to the Sunday Service...
Yeah saw that run, unfortunatley I was a very busy person March, due to working weekend and other planned trips.

I am very interested in a May run, as I had a brilliant time on the last one!

Chris is on a driving tour of Spain at the moment. Unbelievably, people pay him for writing stuff for magazines! I KNOW !!!!

Unfortunately, he's already lunched his Chim engine's bottom end. (Seriously bad news) frown and destroyed one hire car.

If he manages the rest of the journey without killing his second 207 hire car, we'll set something up for the end of May, early June.

How's that?

Yes, it's a crying shame. He was to drive around the 'edge' of Spain in his Chim. By the sounds of it, it's just about as bad as it can be.

We didn't quite destroy the 207, it developed an intermittent engine fault... smile

The current-gen Polo we had after that was much nicer. That survived all the way to Bilbao and we were given a 107 to go from Portsmouth to London. The latter was actually quite a giggle with a little three cylinder engine that sounded like half a Porsche flat six. It wasn't that quick in the higher gears, though, don't think I lifted off for the whole of the A3... hehe

Deciding what to do about the Chimaera: simply fix, fix and upgrade the engine or possibly even sell.

Nope. It might not even be coming back. It's sat in the workshop of the only TVR specialist in Spain and they're desperate to find cars to convert to LHD, so I might drop them a line to see if there interested...
