Got a meeting in Southampton Wednesday pm . . not sure what time I'll be able to get back . . . . .

Incursus · July 31, 2007, 07:10:30 AM

Still sorting out the new digs

Motorama · July 31, 2007, 07:59:59 AM

Stop making excuses you lot , its gonna be nice weather, what better excuse do you need to get your cars out

Roadkill · July 31, 2007, 08:03:09 AM

I'll see what time I get back from Southampton but can't justify the fuel costs if I'm going on my own . . . Don't mind if a few wanna catcha ride but that's probably effectively a £60-£70 trip in the Caddy . . .

To Watford! You need to rebuild your carb again

Roadkill · July 31, 2007, 08:08:48 AM

Yeah . . .

But I said "effectively" ie I'll put £40 in when I set off but (as I've got no fuel gauge) will then put another £20-£30 before coming home to be safe.

Roadkill · July 31, 2007, 08:12:17 AM

It's about 45 miles . . . not as much as I'd first thought.

I'll ask the others - see If I can share the fuel costs . . . . .

Well said that man, me thinks I'll make the most of the weather and get the T Tops off

Roadkill · July 31, 2007, 08:48:32 AM

I'll point out at this stage that I don't need good weather to haul the Caddy out.

She's been through rain and ice & snow without fault . . . .

Yeah but on this trip she'll cross the border into Hertforshire. Better check your passport

Giblets · July 31, 2007, 09:06:15 AM

Tempting but a bit of a drive for me.

Not sure it's bigger than the Harpenden event though as that markets itself as the biggest weekday evening car show in the country!

The trip in ice and snow was to Northamptonshire of all places . . . In february . . . with no heating . . . .

Motorama · July 31, 2007, 10:05:02 AM

Been there a few times.

Forunately i have music and heat in the 56, never had both in an old car before
