For this year.

Today was a beautiful sunny day, so it would of been rude not to go for a little hoon, went to visit my parents, so took taz turbo junior with me, destination one mile, driving time one and a half hours on lovely quiet roads, nice!

With the RFL expiring tomorrow and the weather looking generally pooh, looks like it's lay up time again.

Chris.

Yup gonna lay mine up too as tax runs out tomorrow. Knew i hadn't used it much in the last 6 months due to bad weather and work commitments but didn't realize how little - only 800 miles! Don't think that's gonna change much in the next six months with the bad weather coming so gonna lay her up get her tidied up ready for sale in the spring and then start the search for a V8 smile

Well, mine is taxed and insured all year round. Just had her out for a blast.

You can't beat a cold crisp sunny winters day blast.

Well, mine runs out today too :-(
It's been a really ccensoredy day here in Nottingham!
I'm really pleased I took my car out yesterday when it was dry and bright, although pretty bloomin cold!

Oh well, I've now got 6 months time to tackle all of those "little, irked niggly" tasks.

That's if I don't get completely pcensoredd off with it and sell it banghead

Good luck to everyone laying their cars up and I'll see you all next year thumbup

Mine normally gets laid up for the winter, but my "mechanic" friend has moved and no longer lives near where the car is stored, (he used to pop over every time he had a few spare hours to do stuff in winter) so I might have to drive it to/from his (where it will be stored "off the road" outside but under cover) for him to do the few tweaks over the winter.

Means I get a bit more driving pleasure, as it would not be ideal to store it at his new place all winter.

TiTT is the last planned outing for this year.
