Well like i said in another post after splashing out on the metering head and putting in the new injectors if there is no change in performance i wont be coming back in it...I will auction it off at £20 per ticket and try to recoup £1500-2K on it but if that fails then i will be burning it..More likely on the way home..Im deadly serious but for insurance purposes..Im only joking..Ziga

That would involve selling 75-100 tickets mark !!

S'ambitious..... and you would be better off parting it out....no, wait !

You have come so far mark, take it if you can, and you never know who might be able to diagnose it.
I think you are breakdown covered, so worse case, make em drag it back to your place

Re: the convoy.
Dave and i aren't coming till saturday, and even then not too sure what time (i hate early starts, but reckon on around 8.30ish) and may grab breckie as your pig ain't showing till 7ish, so probably be there around 10.30isssshhhhhh.(god willing)


I remember last year, a few guys from the S.E. were meeting at dawn (practically) off the M40 at High Wycombe somewhere.
Don't know if it was saturday or sunday and don't know if they are again or who they were either !!

If it comes to it on sunday, either dave or i will get you back to the london underground system round our manor.
Sorry not to saaaaarf london tho mate, as it gives me the willies !!

Reckon thats M25 then M40 for you chris.
Me and chimpafrolic will be picking up the 25 at jct 17 as we both live there. (M40 is Jct 16) and you will be coming past that if you go counter clock (if not we could meet you on the M40)
We could keep you informed of an off time if you wanna meet at that Jct.

Let us know and we will stay in touch, if not.... thats cool too.

Ill be leaving about 12 on the friday, A2 to the M25, then round to J16 so if anyone is leaving along the same times perhaps a petrol station or services could be the way to go.
Message me for more details

Okay Dave, sounds good.
Speak to you friday.
And if anyone else fancies that, the station is literally 2mins off Jct 17 of the M25
