Sorry about the inane post, but am so happy have just driven my Tam here to work for the first time in 2 weeks, bonnet paint defects sorted, she now looks like new again. I almost forgot how uplifting the driving experience is; purring like a kitten below 3K, and roaring like a T-Rex above 4K, God I have missed her!!!!! :silly: :nuts:

(Typical though, supposed to rain today!!!!, but, hey ho :()

Chris,

Know how you feel. My Tam has had a few excursions to the dealer this year. It is so enjoyable getting it back and redescovering the pleasures of driving your pride and joy.

BTW Hughsie, your Chim looks devastatingly beautiful in that colour!

I must still be too used to driving the 1.2 Clio, I pulled out of a junction on the way home from work with too much throttle, lots of fish tailing ensuwed, great fun!
