Smifffy 3 f's

Celtic tried to re-map my Ocy vRS a few years ago and failed. They said it was something to do with the REVO trial remap that I had on it a few months previously. They had two attempts but still couldn't do it. In the end I went to Awesome GTI and they re-mapped it with the APR re-map with no problem.

It does get a little dusty while stood in the garage. Even more shocking is I might have to put some petrol in it. :eek:

:P I may even clean it.

I hated the powerflex dog bone mount and I've put the standard one back in. Too much noise and vibration in normal driving for me. I may just put it back in if I do another track day though. On the re-map if your not sure don't do it. But if you do decide to have it done go somewhere local. That's one of the main reasons I went to Awesome for mine. (and Sarah makes a good brew )

I still ache. I think I must be getting too old for all this. I don't think I'll tell our Phil about it text time and give us all a chance. Trouble is on the journey down he actually said that he was going to win. Nobody loves a smart ars.:P

Me & 3 fs jnr might be interested. He's in America at the moment though. I'll send him a text to see if he's up for it and I'll let you know.

In the mean time I'm trying to source one of those Burberry cap things just so that I look the part. __________________

:eek::eek::eek: You're not thinking of washing your car are you Jay? :eek::eek::eek:

We'll come. Is it OK with everyone if we bring our 2 dogs along? They're well behaved and we'll keep them on leads. 1) Sharkrider, Mel, HC. 2) Gilly, Wibble & 2 HC's. 3) Loz 4) apd007 :- interested subject to dates etc. 5) Mr Grumpy ( subject to Loz bringing a towel, and Gilly bringing his drinking head.) 6) smog monster (subject to dates) 7) Philje123 + OH 8) AwesomeSarah and Mark no HC (yet anyway) 9) PPat + t'wife + sprog (disclaimers apply - see terms and conditions) 10) Vix (if I can get annual leave) 11) Mater, SWMBO & Dog (date dependant) 12) Robbo + SWMBO maybe 13) Captain Scarlet 14) Andy2407, Little Katie & probably 2 HCs 15) yashicamat 16) Neo-Vr (col) 17) MOONY + swmbo 18) Smifffy + Mrs Smifffy + 2 Dogs if it's OK.

Signed it for all the difference it will make. Perhaps we should all go out and buy one of these 1998 RANGE ROVER P38 4.6 HSE IN GREEN on eBay, also, Land Rover Range Rover, Cars, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 15-Mar-08 13:21:39 GMT) and only pay £200 road tax. I only do about 4000 miles a year in mine, and beginning to wonder whether it's worth it.

I'm going but I'll be tagging along with my mate on the Quattro Owners Club stand.

HTH. Met Office: Macclesfield: forecast

Steve. Our Phil says he's coming so I'll tell him to bring his spanners if you want.

Not got much hair left so I'll just be pottering along.

Well Jay, there's a first time for everything. I might just get the Octy out of hibernation and come down.

It's 3 years on Dec 20th since I had to make the decision to put our eldest dog to sleep. She was 15 & 8 months old and it broke my heart. So sorry to hear that you've had to go through the same as me, but be content in the fact that you made the right decision and she did not suffer. Also the fact that you gave her a good home for her 14 years. You're in our thoughts.

I did the National circuit back in August and really enjoyed it. We were warned that with the tarmac being new it was a bit slippy, so treat it as if it was damp. I found it not too bad though. It was quite easy on the tyres as well. The best piece of advice I can give you is to get some tuition if its available. After my session with the instructor I was a lot more confident and had a much better idea of the lines to take. It's a nice wide track so there's a bit of room for error.:eek: The pictures of the day are here. Customer Folder Mine is the black Octy and the yellow Fabia is my sons. You'll have a great time and I only wish I was coming with you.

Oh well, I've never been very observant.

I thought it was meant to be the first Thursday in every month.:confused:
