After doing some fault diagnosis and testing my TP which appears to be failing again, I decided to take the S out for a spin as it was sunny, roof down of course.

I took the car out with the wife in the passneger seat and had her screaming as I exited a roundabout and entered a slipway onto a dual carriageway. A tight right and then a tight left all at 50-60mph going up through the gears and entered the dual carriageway at eeerrmmm 70ish....fantastic!

I also encountered a Ford Puma with wide wheels and youngster wearing a baseball cap. His Puma must have been modded somewhat as I think he did very well trying to keep up, however once the traffic thinned he was a speck in my rear view mirror!

The roadtest did confirm that my TP probably needs replacing again but still she went like a rocket ....What a car!
