Had my car on the road exactly a year!!

It's been the most fun I've had. Done just over 5,000 miles and had no real problems with it at all.
Also been to lots of shows, meetings and events and I have to say, what a great bunch of guys (and gals) you all are!

I was even confident enough with it to drive down to Hyde Park yesterday and gatecrash a TVR meet.
It's incredibly hard work driving around London though. Don't think I would do that again. Need power steering and an auto box!!

Here's to the next 12 months. Cheers.

The only down side...business has been neglected!

I can only guess Gary is attempting to break the 20mpg barrier, not a bad idea at the moment!

Hi Alan,

If it was before Welyn, then I was following a TVR Cerbera on our way to Hyde Park.

Not normally that slow, but it's rude to overtake the lead car !
