So did they fix you your Nobel? When I saw it it was up in the air with half its guts out around the workshop - looked like some serious money was being spent sorting it out. Chris
Long story but I had some work done on the car a few years back at a specialist I used to use.Basically had the engine lifted chassis area refurbed and engine rocker covers and all other exterior visual parts powder coated so the engine looked like new.That garage had the car 6 months car was delivered back and I suspected that the car came back smoking which it was not doing when I took it to the mentioned garage.Well cut a long story short everything pointed to worn piston rings.Having been bitten I thought I would use a local outfit I had used RCM on my work vehicle fair pricing and good service.They did an engine rebuild (car was on around 120k miles before rebuild)but to be honest they did drag the job out they also had the car nearly 6 months went in January got it back end of May.I now use a guy who actually worked in the factory when they were building the m12.We must have crossed paths in Hone Gym at some point.When the weather picks up could catch up for a drive and a coffee if your around sometime

Interesting story.Sure - when the weather's not quite so foul we can take a drive somewhere and get a coffee and compare notes on cars and whatever else comes to mind. I'm at the gym pretty religiously Mondays and Thursdays around 11am. So if you want to 'bump into me' that's the time to aim for.

Sounds like a plan James for a drive out and a coffee somewhere.I am only able to get down to the gym after work in the week or early doors Saturday mornings
Fair enough. Well let's wait as discussed till the weather's a bit nicer and then we could meet on a Sat some time around lunch and go somewhere.ChocolateFrog said:
There's no way that goes under the radar.
Looks great, better than the yellow.
Well it goes more under the radar than that yellow thing I had to drive for a day!Looks great, better than the yellow.
But heck - each unto their own, it's a free country etc.
(next time I'll take their vauxhall something or other as the courtesy car and save myself £50).

Test drove a Seneca Blue and a lot of people would point/stare at it. I have a Meridian Blue and virtually no one takes a 2nd look.But heck - each unto their own, it's a free country etc.
