As I was driving to work yesterday morning in my lowly Audi A3 who should pull up beside me to join the Great Western Way but Byker28i and his cracking looking Cerb.

At least I think it was you Dave - around 7.30am?

It just looked the business in amongst all the boring Euroboxes and of course sounded great.

Mine should be back from Neil Garner's this week (12K service) and I hope to convoy with you one morning down to the M4!

The wheels in particular looked great. Did you have them refurbed? and if so where? Mine are in need of some TLC.

Just thought I'd share my joyful experience with everyone. wink

Cheers

Ed

Dave (and I) had our wheels refurbed by Lepsons in Swindon. They are at 7 Callenders, Paddington Drive, SN5 7YW, 01793 887222. They did a fantastic job on my original RL7s which were flaking and blistered. They're presently refurbing one of my anthracite SP12s (following a stupid lapse of concentration) and have spent a lot of time sourcing paint and getting a perfect match. They are a very friendly set up so go and have a look at their work if you are unsure.

LOL - 'twas me. My first spotted!

Yup, Lepsons did the work and very good it was too - about £265 all in with the dreaded vat etc, but he sorted out one kerbed wheel and fixed the corrosion/dodgy grinding inside the rim so the tyres now seal properly without sealent.

The only problem is trying to keep the inside as clean as the outside now. biggrin

Oh and if you take the car onto the top of the bus station carpark, the spiral is a little tight for coming back down again. biggrin
