What a collection! And practically every colour of the rainbow there too. What's the yellow car? Saw one of them trying to reverse down at Cheddar Gorge the other week.

Nice one mate, you must have clocked up a few miles then. How many miles was it when you finished the trip?

Sorry to hear about your work situation.

At the very least, you had a good run in Holland without having that news at the back of your mind.

Roger's new Diff Elixir seems to be working it's magic with my CV8, no more clonking from the rear drive-train. Fingers firmly crossed!

Good to meet you last week, I presume the coil-overs made the Dutch run even better.

yeah it was good to meet you too the coilovers are very good its like glue on the road now although the back end did drop quite alot so i had to have it raised up more after so i think the back springs are a little too short because they are now at their highest and the car still looks lowered but it handles like a dream i also adjusted the compression on the springs up a little more so now the front is at 16 clicks and the back is at 18 clicks

Yeah. Clicking away with those simple adjusters on top of the struts will give you loads of opportunities to tune the damping to your liking.
