GaryD1971 Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 This is me, also broken down at the front of the gathering. Mine was also fuel pump related, but it was the fuse. However, the fuse was kept blowing due to an issue with the pump which left me stranded also, requiring a saviour to tow me home. I now have a new pump fitted and it seems to be behaving itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New one ordered and eBay had a code on so hoping to get away with a reasonably cheapish fix 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Carrot Steve Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 We are so desensitised to our cars at times we forget how amazed we were ourselves when we first saw one. It's normal to us but must be quite amazing to see one in real life if you've never seen one before. I can recall a load of Japanese tourists in Bibury and Tetbury getting the cameras out many-a-time as we drove by. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm often amazed at the reaction it gets. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Stuart Davis AO - Devon Cornwall & Somerset Posted September 7 Popular Post Share Posted September 7 Back home after a very moist trip home from Umberleigh. Grand day out, driving around Devon with the rest of the gang. Weather was kind during the day, but got bad for the trip home. This sky is that colour because the Crewkerne Street Fair is in town! 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ansoeb Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 I took part in a run through the scenic route to Oban yesterday with about 8 cars, a mixture of kits. Mk, Westie, Caterham and 3 Lotus. There was an S2 exige with over 300 bhp, had fun trying to keep up. Lots of getting lost on the way and various routes taken but we met up in the end. 360miles covered and smiles all round. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
