Hi everyone! I hope you´re all well.
I,m having a ball down here, it´s only rained once since I arrived so the Noble has been getting a good hammering. I even did a track-day last Sunday at a place called Guadix. I went along with a 911 turbo, a tuned Audi TT and a VERY tuned Scooby B22. Big respect to the Noble, they couldn´t get close!

I hope to get back more often now as Telefonica (the national phone company) have promised to have me on-line this week. ( I´m in an internet shop ).

Has anyone got a fix for a leaking power steering pot? It only happens when I get a bit playful.

The roads over here ore sooooo slippery compared to the UK. The car wants to be sideways all the time, 1/4 throttle in a bend and awaaaaaaaay she goes!

The Spanish, wherever I go, love the car. It´s big smiles and thumbs-ups everywhere. They don´t know what it is but they love it anyway.

A big thank you for all the nice words when I left Blighty, it brought a tear to my eye.

Will talk again soon, Martin.

Hi martin - glad you are having fun

The power steering fluid out of the container is a known issue, they changed my container for me but it still leaks (not as much). I note Lee's M400 has a different one again.

Evening Mr J. Glad to hear you're settling in well down there.

I would have thought a local garage would be able to sort the power steering reservoir for you. Although are you sure you just didn't boil the fluid on the track day and it's just overflowed?

Keep in touch. Get something organised for next spring so we can come down and have a blast!

Yep whens the party? You can organise a hotel and trackday nearby if you don't want us all living in your house
