How Glorious

[Chilliman]

Been using beastie through the winter when I've been at home, come rain, sunshine, hail or snow. But tonight, got her out the garage, hood down, windows down, just a tee shirt on... fecking glorious...

Er, was also wearing trousers and shoes

Same here, 27c and sunny here in norway now... had a 3 hour blast with a friend, driving just for the sake of it! Drove past a 997 carrera2, he followed but couldnt pass me well done with 100 hp less!

Love my car. Pedestrians and other drivers seem to love it aswell Glorious!

I've left mine with the top down for the last 4 days, abbbbbsolutely love it with the sun out. Had some little kid on the drive in say "cool car mate" as he was walking past. ha. Summer is definitely the time these cars come into their own !

Ive emptied most of the junk in mine. I am sure the landlady doesnt mind camping gear, tools, drag tyres, etc etc in her gaff till next week.
I can actually manage to put the roof in the boot for the 100 mile drive to my sisters then another 65 to Prescott tomorrow. Better get some protection on the monkeys arse first tho

I'll be out for a blat this evening just to check all is well and to fill up with fuel ahead of a weekend of further blatting

[Alun Ivor]

yep me too, bin putting her through hell all winter then could not take it anymore, went south west scotland for a 900 mile blast last sat nite,sunday all day roof down amazing roads and a silly grin on my face the whole damn time, heaven is right here in a Tvr guys, just had to make sure that having a new engine will be worthwhile, errr hell yeah, lol. Sadly thats the last time people are lucky enough to see and hear her as the engines out next wk, boo hoo, but hey she will be like a spring chicken soon enough, yippie.

I have free rail travel for the UK - HOWEVER to get to a 2 day event in Coventry, guess how I got there and back

Bootiful weather!

I had a great run down from the North East to Cheltenham this afternoon in readiness for Prescott. I very nearly ran out of fuel though!

[Bassfiend]

I'll have done the best part of 1,500 miles in two weeks in mine by the end of next week...

...all paid for by work.

I do like my life.

The trip yesterday to work was great, hood off, open roads, no Lorries, few cars. Wish it would be the same on the way home on a Friday!

Last Sunday completed 500+ miles in France.

Hood off at GU8 and remained off until Rennes. The trip down was very hot, forgot that if the roof is off you will end up with a sunburnt head. Trip back was not so good, rain and cops. Near Le Havre got passed by a Bruxelles Aston who must have though the mandatory minimum in the wet was 110!

Feck it, I've burnt my arms, my face, my nose and the top of my head. Lunch in Southwold, mid afternoon tea at Snape Maltings, quick jaunt into Aldeburgh then back up to Norwich. Bought a hat at Snape but it was too late, damage is done. Saw a Chim leaving Norwich on the A146 late morning then a T350 late afternoon also on the A146 few miles outside of Norwich.... I look like a bloody strawberry

Down to Wales on mon and touring about locally ( 2 adults & 3 dogs - it can be done!) Back up to Lancs yesterday and left the roof down here in Criccieth and then back down today. Absolutely glorious. The fact that I had to run round for an alternator last Sat & change it (noisy rear bearing) then bandage the exhaust yesterday (punctured flexi bit) is completely irrelevant. Truly, the weather really does make it all worth while.

Bugger! Im a lobster! Had my top off since 9 this morning

On the plus side I didn't have a cold start issue today

[dbv8]

To Prescott and back with the roof down ..... In a Chim! Even drove the hill and got waved at in an angry way by the marshals .... Glorious
