Sneak preview, from the 'Speshul One'

 

 

Gave it a quick clean and removed the Green cotton filter to be replaced with a standard type panel filter. The Green cotton one seems to have gone manky and quite rusty in places, most definitely down to the fact I just never got around to cleaning and oiling it often enough :( So much less smoke now though!  

I paid my Freedom subs and stuck an ad for my Mk2 VRs up

Fitted four pallets flat in the back of my fabia vrs hatch! Two of them were big euro pallets too. Who needs an estate!? Could have probably fitted a couple more in too.

Drove around 600 miles on a tank of diesel to get to Goodwood and back yesterday.

Drove around 450 miles to Goodwood and back. Couldn't do it on a tank. Put £20 of BP Ultimate (97) at Eastleigh and by Castle Combe junction it had gone! Managed to get to Neath Abbey to a Tesco so I could put Momentum back in.

No I couldn't do it in a tank either, a vRS, yes, but not a tank.   

Changed

Quick service, with gearbox oil change and selector cable adjust.

Went to Stamford Park in Ashton-Under-Lyne.  My daughter was squealing and running around in the fountains and I was squealing and struggling to eat an ice cream before it melted all down my arm!!   :sun:

 

In the battle that is man versus food....I won!!

Fell asleep during the daylight so ended up fitting 25smd h3 bulbs 10 minutes ago and this is the outcome. I think i like it.
