You got further than me then with the camera - I completely forgot mine!!

Maybe I could forward one of my 2 leather cleaning kits (both won in the raffle) to Rob - just to give him a complete set of cleaning gear...

Great day out (despite the early weather) and good to put faces to names.

Cheers
Jaye

Ooops - sorry meant Dave (obviously struggling with names today )

Hi chaps I took photos of all S's at the BNG (which sadly excludes mine and Tims as the weather meant roads local to us were still closed this morning) I'll post them tomorrow...

there was some talk of a mysterious prototype TVR seen near the event reported to be a Sagaris 4x4 heavily disguised with Mitsubishi badging to throw off the papperazi... unfortunately the disguise was so good they wouldnt let me into the carpark with it

Jim (white S1)and I had a most enjoyable weekend down at BNG and thanks TinksV8s for the comments above it was good to get best S again.Kevin as for the polishing kit I will just have to study the instructions Carefully and as TvrGit said maybe I will be able to clean the car properly at some time, I will practice on the Wedge FHC first.

Tinks

Did you run home with your original ECU connected and if so how did it run.

It dawned on me half way home that we should have tried my ECU in your motor to see how it run, sorry mate. I spent half the journey home thinking of possible causes. Hope you sort it soon.

Good turn out of sss on the day, nice to put a few faces to names, well done David Bruce for best S.... and for getting another polishing kit . sorry MY S didn't make it - started it up , backed it out of the garage, 10 minutes later wouldn't start. Been on the other cars trickle charger overnight, showed fully charged, started ok then 30mins later wouldn't start, charger back on showed battery discharged but charging normally, took a long time before showing fully charged again. New battery me thinks, what is the best one to go for the 072 or the 075 anybody. On the good side won an accumate charger in the raffle, how spooky is that.

Hi Ian
There's a good thread about batteries here:
http://tinyurl.com/68z8m3
I was told the 072 had been replaced by the 089.
I bought a Numax 68 505


Cheers
