[quote=telum01]Finally got a few minutes to get started on my grey V8V. Drained my oil catch can...



Rich

I'm a little worried about you red wine & oil habit

They both look rich & creamy & I'd hate u to mix them up

hahaha that was actually unintentional. I was just trying to show the markings on the measuring cup.
But yeah, I'm trying to get back into my groove again... building content on my website, making more videos. All I did yesterday was change my cabin filters, empty my catch can, and remove my tail lights... a whopping 30 mins of work... and I felt really excited just to have done that. After an ungodly bad relocation, and a new round of horrible news that I'm not handling very well, it felt really good to do something I love... wine and wrench.

Working on the rear bumper removal DIY guide and video...

We drove to sydney & back over the weekend

had a great time while there

did 2350km, average 78km/hour incl everything in & around cities, average 11.5L/100km

dont believe I'll get any love letters from the men in blue

car ran faultlessly (except for a stone caught in the rear rotor following some road works - minor problem)

and got to drive some fabulous fast back roads like the Putty Rd from Windsor to The Hunter Valley through national park

just love that car

Spent the last 3 days giving the car a really deep clean,

Wash and decontamination, light machine polish followed by Crystal Serum and 2 coats of EXO 3.

Midnight Blue. The sun was right behind me for that photo which really makes is pop. And next month it's going for a good polish and protection to make it melt eyeballs biggrin

Afternoon run down to the Kent coast. Lovely day but a bit busy at the coast.

Saw a convoy 5 Bill Towns Lagonda's heading back the other way near Appledore, not too common a sight.

Lovely.

Did you go somewhere youd recommend? I go that way a fair bit but have no clue about good eateries in the area.....
