130 miles last night. That cleared the cobwebs

Starting the journey home from the Dolomites

None of this fancy European stuff for me unfortunately, just a mundane visit to B&Q. Any excuse to get out!

There isn’t a section for returning users, so thought Startline was probably the best place to put this. For those of you who don’t know/remember me, I’m Mat and was a member here 3-4 years ago - used to have a green 1.8 Zetec before Covid job loss forced me to sell. For those of you I have met up with previously - hello again, can’t wait to see you all. My partner will confirm I’ve been a right miserable and grumpy sod since selling up, and so delighted to report that I’ve finally managed to rectify the situation. Introducing the Jaffa Cake. A 2.0 Duratec SEiW Deal agreed today and will be collected this coming week at some point. I’m based South Lincs, towards Peterborough. Looking forward to one of your run outs to some cake at some point @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative and @AndrewBClarke. Will be in touch with you too@Martin Bell - (Bellyboy) East Anglia AO as I think you’re my closest AO? Thanks Mat

Welcome back Mat, great looking car 👍

Just had an update on our stand position at this years show, centre stage on a nice flat field, and i can say it is going to be GREAT! and they have grouped all the kit related clubs together which i also like. Can't wait. Still time to get tickets if you want to come along 👍 Please let me know on here or pm or if you are on the East Anglia WhatsApp... I will add you to the list... Kimbolton 2025.pdf

They look the danglers young sir

I can - but a colour can look great on paper (or another car) and then look naff on a Westie…

You usually find six rivets with penny washers, three each side on the bottom lip.

Love this, of the passes you’ve done this trip, I’ve not cycled this one!

Personally I wouldn't be too anxious about taking the step to R13, obviously tyre choice more limited but ride is great. I've taken R15 off two cars to go R13. On a previous car I had 185 60 on the front which would not fill Westfield cycle wings hence why I used Caterham style cycle wings, looked fab. Current car has 205 60 all round and they fill Westfield cycle wings fine.

LiFePO4 battery 20Ah and charger (charger more expensive than Battery! but seems reputable company, IP65, thick cables, solid connetor, and few modes and app for more experienced users . Battery with peak discharge current 50A. Not sure, but hope it wil be sufficient for reverse elecric motor.
