I hope you're talking about mine Pablo. No DDK stickers yet waiting for my membership to come through...... nudge nudge :) :)

I had a good day, it was great to finally put a few faces to names. Had an early start, leaving home at 6am to meet up with Darren on the M1! The drive home was great a small panic at a loss of power due to a stray HT lead and Darren disappearing in the distance! A quick pit stop soon sorted that out though. Cheers Darren! I couldn't look thought it was going to be considerably worse than that.

Darren please get the '14 on the road as I don't think I've ever 'red lined' a car so much trying to keep up with someone! :lol: :lol:

Crickey! What happened there?? When I transported my 911 I had to make an emergency stop and noticed the car coming forward. I was fearing for my front valance -with hindsight I shouldnt have :wink: - but luckely the car and trailer came out ok.

I hope that you and Larry arrived safely: good luck and shall we better evade the roads around Ashby now that you are testing them???

Come on, show us some piccies!!!!!

:oops: And there was me thinking I was on my best behaviour Stephen :lol: Great to meet you, and again lovely car mate. Must say I really enjoyed that drive back as well, driving with another car does make the journey more fun. Roof off, sun beaming down and being able to watch this on the move was just great :P

I'm guessing you didn't notice the Police cars and large group of coppers who abruptly all turned around when the two of us screamed away from the service station on the way back :lol: :lol: :lol: I must of checked my mirrors a dozen times as we pulled back onto the M1.

Great drive though! :)
