Chaps. I know Danny will love them
Takes a bit of getting used to, and that pic isn't the best angle, it looks better in the flesh

Re: I'm back......
I would have been tempted but the thought of a drive down and back would have been a headache.. I be interested in what the drive is like now with 13” wheels also what tyres are you running on .andyd wrote: ↑Fri Aug 30, 2019 4:05 pmYes JM, they are sold to a mate for his Capri restoJasonmarie wrote: ↑Fri Aug 30, 2019 3:12 pmAre you selling the 15 with tyres mr Andy as going in to get my refurbished on the 10th sept ?

Hi Andy,
What's going on here? One minute you're selling the pepperpots, the next we hear of it they're on your car!
It looks superb, by the way. You can't beat a nice set of 'pots.
Andrew.

It just made sense, so we did the deal before I changed my mindAndrew 2.8i wrote: ↑Fri Aug 30, 2019 7:01 pmHi Andy,

Looking good Andy, even made the sun come out. Nice long drive you've got there. Hope you've settled in.

Not the best pic, but it was so bright I could see hardly anything on the phone screen
Yes it's a long drive although quite narrow but better than nothing.
Settling in ok, the Mrs was stripping wallpaper so thought I would get outside for an hour

I expect you're itching to get in and drive.
Andrew.
Even more since I got it out yesterday
We live in a close with a turning circle 30 yards away, but without tax it's not worth the risk as tempting as it was!
Bit of a bugger to start from cold yesterday, hasn't ran for just over 10 weeks but usually starts better than that. Even the negative battery nut was slightly rusty when I went to connect battery. Maybe living near the sea the salt air causes different issues
