hmm, the 14th is almost certainly a no for me...

That's a shame. There's going to be another vauxhall coming, and you'd have made a lovely convoy together at the back.




It's now run in

I may bring the big orange one now

Sorry Gary, couldn't resist a dig. Makes up for all the bumpy landings I have to put up with from your lot (I'm also jealous)

Lol @ FWD

It's ok anyway the back seemed the place to be what with all those petrol fumes leaking out of the back of the MG

Yup, she's still dribbling a bit. I haven't managed to keep the jag running for long enough to fix the MG!!! Mind you, even with a dribble, she does 30mpg, not bad for a '50s design!

Yes but if you went over 35 MPH I'm sure she would start to drink the juice

You still can't work out the gearbox!!


Are you going? Or does the 360 bashing rep of the VX put you off??

I didn't know Ferrari did an automatic box on the 360 (Or have you not realised that the car has more than one gear ).

Anyway, only four and a bit days till the talking stops and the begins!! My money is on the MG being first out at the start, and first into the pub!!!

Hi Gary might be there out on a piss up the day before but hopefully i will have recovered. Probably bringing my girlfriend along as well.

I presume you are enjoying the VX as you have run it in already!

I thought the VX came with RAC cover? Or have you exceeded your yearly-allowance of callouts already?
