Not had a long run in the car for ages, had occasion to go to Warwick so decided the 300 mile round trip would test it.
Bloody marvelous - although it took me 3 1/4 hours to get there! Queued a fair part of the M27 then the same on the M3 then a crash on the A34, so lots of clutch work, and also you might remember my previous posts on engine temp - both we perfect - absolutely perfect.
Caught up some time on the M40 when we reached cruising altitude then looked down at the speedo! yikes

Only 2 small spoilers, picked up a hefty stone chip in the screen, and the boot wouldn't shut when I got to the office. Had to pop the boot light out and wiggle the latch for it to go back, so will lube that later, but didn't take the shine of a great drive.

Cor these cars can shift! biggrin

Oh man, tell me about watching the speedo, many times I've been "pootling" in town, glanced at the speedo to see I'm doing 50!!!

Glad you out in her again Mark, she's been a bit of a mission lately by the sounds of it.

Not as much as some others on here Steve, but glad to have shaken out the demons as it were.
