Couple of simple jobs today, swapped the oh so time consuming to adjust belts to some nice Sabelt ones purchased second hand from a forum member… And swapped the ‘fried egg’ indicator bulbs for some silvered ones…

Great to be back out in the Peaks! Nearly two whole months with out a fix! The roads were damp but gloriously quiet on my way in. It's rare for me to be behind @AndrewBClarke lovely V8 as I'm normally at the back of the convoy and he's nearer the front of the Peaky Cake hunt. As there were only 3 cars out, we made good progress and no one took the wrong turning. We found a 'stang at the Yonderman! We had a few drops of cloud sweat, but nothing to worry about! Clear skies and sunshine at Baslow Thanks to all who came along and wonderful quiet roads @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative you never fail to delight with your routes.

First little run out this year due to all the rain. MOT booked in a couple of weeks, so nice to make sure it all ran fine before then. Lovely R5GTT filling up at the same time too. Feels like spring is finally on the way with today's nice weather.

Awesome.. TY

Just a reminder that the Devon and Somerset meet is tomorrow at The Halfway House pub near Cullompton. Start at 19.30, normally finish by 21.30 ish.

Great Martyn. Count me in. Thanks, Greg

@aeg you won't find any cake under there will you? so hurry yourselves up, it's March next weekend and time to pay the nice tax man. We, however, met at The Whitworth where they sell lots of lovely food, this is us in the car park and this is us in the cafe Dave had to scoot off but it was lovely to see him and thank you for the advice on the steering wheel, 15mm spacer purchased , thank you Ian for the link don't they look after you xx Off we went on a sunny run round the Peak District finally feeling like Spring is coming. We arrived at The Yondermann Cafe and found a nice parking spot next to a friendly Mustang owner, of course he was friendly, he was from Barnsley, a true Yorkshireman. At 4.6 litre and V6, he let me get in and start it up, ooooooooo, that put a smile on my face. Parked at The Yondermann Some had already moved over to summer shorts Chris joined us for lunch and popped along to the next stop for cake too, he's well trained After discovering it was someone's birthday, we had a good excuse to nip down to The Pavillion, Baslow for cakes Parked in Baslow with Ian's black cloud Monkey's Tea Party So that was it, we managed to have a great day out and we didn't get wet, nothing short of a miracle. I was just missing one of my Winter Warriors, Gnasher, I hope he is ok and look forward to seeing him again soon x Thanks for a lovely day out, it's been superb. We are on holiday next weekend but will be back out the weekend after, weather permitting, see you then x

First time out of the garage since before Christmas. On it's new tyres too.

Couple from yesterday’s track day taken by my brother….

Rather for EU buyers due to logistics, but sending to the UK could also be possible via private transport if something can be arranged. Bought these seats a few years ago, originally intended for MNR, but they were never fitted — only tried sitting in them a few times. For me they are a bit too tight (dimensions on the last picture). Also, plans changed and I ended up building a foam seat for the MNR and decided not to install a passenger seat to keep the weight down. Very good quality, robust build. Not especially lightweight, but really solid. (In the pictures there is only one seat shown — the second one is identical.) Price for all (2 seats + 1 set of mounts + 1 set of adapters) : 650 EUR Current factory price for this set 840E without shipment https://lusomotors.com/ https://www.rccseats.com/

The doors with this Westy I’m refurbing were very tired looking with tatty edges and faded cloth, the windows wears quite badly scratched in places, anyway I did some repairs using “Shoe glue”. I've fitted some edging and gave them a really good clean, sprayed the material with autoglym spray dye, and then polished the windows with head light restorer and a sponge buffing pad. quite pleased with the result.

Went out for a blast this afternoon to clearing my head after shouting at the electric company all afternoon. While putting Westie away: Things can always get a little worse...
