We covered 100 miles today travelling east to a 2 night log cabin stop North of Leon called Las Cabañas Vegaquemada, lovely blue skies, hot and some cracking fast twisties 😎 although there was one high speed altercation with a uneven road bump which took a few thou’ of all our lowered floor seat bolts 😕

Good evening My first post as a new member and owner. Based in Surbiton, Surrey. I’ve recently taken over the running of a 2004 SEiW as built by my father in Northern Ireland. He’s still going strong BTW, just has his eyes on another project, so I “bought” it off him and we road-tripped it to Surbiton at the start of July. Before he let it go, he made a few mods to the original 2004 spec. She is running an 1800 silver-top Zetec on Jenvey throttle bodies now with longer air horns, courtesy of SBD Motorsport and a Westfield carbon 6” de-cat silencer. When I got it over from NI, we had it mapped by Steve Greenald to 147 BHP. All this transformed the performance beyond recognition. I can’t recommend Steve at SBD and Steve Greenald highly enough. Over the winter I plan a suspension upgrade from the stock Westfield parts it was built with - I’ve already been in touch with Dennis at Siltech and he’s been a great help. Will also go down to 15” or 13” rims from the current 16” I have. But for now, I’m just enjoying punting around the Surrey hills, getting to know the car and avoiding cyclists! So, a question. Where and when is the nearest meet to Surbiton? Would be good to meet up with a crowd soon! Cheers Philip Some shots of the car:

Does not compute 🤔

When you get to the point, usually in the afternoon, when you think 'I am a driving God' consider going home or having a rest period. This is the time when I have seen the most incidents and most risks taken.

For sale twice, must be some kind of record!

Went for a Chinese buffet tonight as the hotel was having an all day wedding event in the banquet room directly underneath our bedrooms, another doo had kept us awake last night quite late. We noticed tonight men going into the toilets “together” and coming out appearing upset “sniffling” so I went in with my walkie talkie turned on clipped to my shorts, adorned also with pink shirt and WSCC baseball cap backwards.. must have looked like under cover UK Miami Vice.. I got some concerned points, mumbles and stares 😅 .. anyway buffet feed was great apart from Wayne and myself went for chicken thighs which were a tad on the small side..
