Looks like I've upset one of my neighbours. The forecast for today was looking so good i thought id go to work in the westy unfortunately it was a 6am start so leaving home at 530 so i pushed him out of the garage cracked him up and i was off as quietly as i could job done Then i got a call from swimbo , someone had posted a unsigned letter through my door Ive got to say im not fully to blame for this @Steve (stevel) - Lancashire AO told me to be at charnock Richard services for 7am Sunday morning for the trip to stoneleigh .so i think he has to take the flak for that if by any chance my neighbour is reading this please accept my sincere apologies but unfortunately i won't be converting to electric any time soon Tony

Wizzer, start a thread on 'Barbecue at Wizzers House. All Westies are Welcome '

Its in hand with Troy from NMS to deal with as the maps not good really, so he is going to get the codes and unlock from Omex and remap the car in the not too distant future.

Someone round the back of us had an Imprezza , with a bazooka exhaust. I think they got complaints and they used to drive in and out their drive many times in an evening and sure that something was said, to then see it had disappeared. They never sell their cars, so was odd. They have big race motorbikes with open cans now , but they go out and come back hours later. I dont mind, as they just go passed the house and off. Winter defrost with a scoob would probably drive people nuts. Its no more unsociable having a westie than a bike on an early morning sunday run, which is pretty frequent round here and being I live near the A4 , the blats are heard at the weekend. I usually start my westie , run for 30 secs and then go. If Omex had mapped it properly when cold, I would start it and drive straight off, as I prefer getting up to temp quickly and off cold enrichment. Guy down the other end of the street has a new M4 with aftermarket exhaust and on cold start has made complaints there as it sounds really stroppy when cold

Pre 9am Now that really is a p*** take,how can anyone have the neck to moan about that Get yourself an Impreza as a daily driver,one with an exhaust that sounds like a semi-automatic rifle at tick over

This is probably posted in the wrong place however here goes. Just over a couple of weeks ago the header tank failed on my SE. I put up on the forum that i was after a new or second hand one. Although I got some replies I sent of for a new one on Ebay. When I got the conformation of purchase it said delivery would be Monday 7th (yes I know a bank holiday). I was fortunate to be on holiday that week but needed the car for Saturday 13th. I then had whilst in Lanzarote an email saying that the new header was going to be despatched from Germany on Tuesday 8th. What to do????? Well I got a message from Julie Hall ( AO Peak District ) saying she was at Stoneleigh, had seen a header on the jumble stall, not only that she had put it in the back of her car. Did I want it? A pal of mine picked it up from her and by the time I got back last Thursday the header had been fitted and the car was ready for the charity run on the Saturday. Many thanks WSCC but in particular Julie Hall for going "above and beyond the call of duty". BTW the header turned up but wasn't quite the correct fitting. BIOMAN

There has to be payments in cakes and food for this @Julie Hall - AO Representative, Peak District AO

I feel sorry for my neibours in the last house... I cut up a car in the road.. sprayed a car on the drive, spent every weekend hammering. And the car I owned every time I started it it set their car alarm off. Your neibour should be grateful.

I've not seen a date written in a margin since school!

@wizzer you are not alone! I really miss my V8 used to love n early morning starts in that one my zetec now doesnt have the same effect lol

Get it converted to a sticker and have it on the car like a medal
