Well well well...

long time no speak Very Happy

just thought id mention that i belive the car is ready for it MOT, wich its going for in the next hour or so.

then if she passes back i shall be.

just took it for a proper drive..good 40 miles or so to blow some cobwebs away, and all i can say is...holy shit have i missed her!! mainly that noise, wich is even nicer now accompanied by a stainless catback scorpion zorst.

ill let you know how she fairs..but lets say i wont be to shocked if it dose fail on a few things..

apart from that, whats been happerning in the world of RR? i heard chris has a new valver and has valverd the redun! ive missed far to much! Sad
