Got my ass to the DVLA for my 12 months of freeness. It only cost me 60p for parking and an hour and half of my life with some of the most degenerate people in existence! (I fitted right in)

Well baptism of fire this weekend. I hadn't driven the car for more than 10 miles at a time. Took it to MITP this weekend 120miles each way and didn't miss a beat. Unfortunately nobody bought the car. Had a bit of interest though. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

He's bought an old standard turbo engine with all the ancilleries and a rebuild short engine with 10cc omega's in so thats a good start. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |
