It as such a beautiful day out here in West Wales that the cover came off, the trickle charger was unplugged and we took to the hills.



Tomorrow I will be mostly cleaning the car!

Sunny indeed, dry roads, well close enough,,, Vesuvius reminded me what 580 bhp feels like,,, its niiiice.

Then it was the turn of her stable companion, MO55IE. A touch parky it has to be said but as I arrived back home and parked her alongside the red beast I realised I couldn't say which drive I had preferred more,,,, in different ways they both gave copious amounts of adrenaline rush, just wonderful. thumbup

It was a lovely, sunny morning (albeit still icy) so I had to take the opportunity to get all dirty. Had a few 'slippy' moments but that's what LSDs and opposite lock are for.

Even managed to find an interesting village on my travels...

LOL - fair point!!! I think they increase the rolling resistance a bit though - definitely feels a bit nippier now (mind you that could be the weather) laugh

Pete understands though. Solidarity brother! smile

not great as you say especially as the tyres are only 1000 miles old, lucky it was in the central third which they can patch.
