Aye but mine's on the blink still, 25mph up the A1M at one stage.
Bloody phucking raging toothache did nothing to improve my mood.

Would have loved a drive (even just cruising), but the brake master cylinder is not playing at the moment and refurbishment or full replacement is a bit of a 'quest' in the last couple of weeks.
Anybody knowing, by the way, if something more modern (sierra, newer ford models) could provide a full replacement of master cylinder and vacuum assistence?
At least got some diy on the house done, so more driving time available in the future when it is all sorted again.

Enjoy your blasts,
Rob
