After a stty wet weekend, I took the Chim out for its last run before I go off on hols on Wednesday.
A 'spirited' drive up the coast road as the roads were thankfully clear of weekend drivers, and it had me buzzing again. Even a 400 Chim will monster most cars on the road, and the noises were fantastic! Got admiring looks from bikers to young ladies - if there's a downside to going to Bermuda, it'll be missing the TVR!!

Yep. Started examining the piggy bank to see if I could afford an MX5 or something as a stop gap until it's ready, but most of my budget is going on the new engine at the moment so I'm stuck with the Focus. irked
