Dave the Sparky Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 First sunny Sunday, empty A roads, dry tarmac, roundabouts with no giving way, starting to explore the grip and speed out of turns... And I thought it was all tinkering! Ha Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M444TTB Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Dragging mine out shortly to take Dommo out for a ride. Haven't driven it for weeks due to holiday and weather! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KugaWestie Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Just had about 2 hours out in mine. Took a trip over to Dad's and then took him out for a good old blat. He loved it, nearly as much as me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Just got my first blat of the season too due to a prolonged Zetec cambelt change (waiting to get a sprocket holding tool). Finished it this morning and been out round the Malvern Hills this afternoon. Need to lower my tyre pressures a bit I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Colonial Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Had my first blat of the year yesterday, a good shakedown run to see if anything needed doing. The Wench was in fine fettle, running like a champion - hello happiness, my old friend. Even had two lovely ladies in their 40s in a Range Rover drive up next to me at the lights, roll down their window and cooed and beamed at me - the passenger even blew me a kiss! (Clearly, she was the blind one being taken by the driver to pick up her seeing-eye dog.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SootySport Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Also had a drive this am, went round to see Tigger and show him me new bits. No doors or roof made in a bit Cool even in the sun, on the way home it decicded to throw a few hailstones at my cheeks, they do sting don't they?

Dave the Sparky Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Bit of a meet on at Arley Hall! Lots of tweed knocking about! I know the estate manager, maybe we could arrange a little gathering? Cafe does a mean cream tea! Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
