Went to collect my bits ordered whilst in US last week from the delivery office, only to be told 'they're still at the depot'. "Stop sending me helpful e-mails telling me they are here then!" Try again Saturday morning. :evil:

Did some reading up on the recirculating air valve. Probably need to buy a new one.

A great car, sorry to hear that you have parted company Mick.

Jumped on the train to Banbury and collected my car. Drove back to London in rain and sun and discovered how easily the rears spin up without an LSD!

Good afternoon from wet Essex.
It would seem that Monsier Aubergene will not be quite ready for Le mans 24hour, so today got the 930 out of storage.
Battery dead so new one on order, hasn't been driven for 10 months but started first time with jump start and ran like a dream. Also went straight through MOT with no problems or advisories.

Roll on Le Mans 24 and CLM

Nice 930

I fitted a very early 70s Moto Lita today. 360mm, slightly dished. Lovely smooth, nicely worn leather.

I took the little lad for a spin and loved the feel of the wheel. Perfect size, position and feel

Loving that wheel bootsy 8)

I fitted an anti roll bar on the 914. It's made a big difference to the handling along with the new shocks and springs. Transformed the car :)
