Today I have been mostly cleaning the inside of the windscreen, with the low autumn sun it's been really noticeable the build up of dust and grime on the inside. Quick spray of glass cleaner and polish off with newspaper and good to go :)

Used to have a C63...
Two as it happens, and that is his own self- admitted reason too!

I really hope that Gordon has weaved his magic, and that they employ one or two Production Engineers this time...

Love TVRs but would never be brave enough to sink my own cash in to one on past form!

Just had a puncture repaired on the E Class.

Not been used all weekend but still managed to attract a large Phillips screw in the tread. At least it was in a repairable area...

To put his name on it he will have, I know a couple of his guys and they are at the top of their game

Bought a cheap little van as a runaround to save the Mercedes from being loaded with crap. Should save me hours of hoovering :)
Gives me a new toy to fiddle with too....;):D

Thats why we bought the 210 estate. We only paid £600 for it and since (12 months) have replaced the CPS, a wheelbearing and aircon compressor. Its done 5 fully laden trips to France and hasn't missed a beat. Its so nice to drive I'm now starting to think its too nice to run as a work hack!
That would be my problem, I'd get all attached to it.
My van is to save the Merc from crap and motorway commuting plus it's a business asset that 'depreciates' and any costs are offset.
Though from £580 purchase price, it won't depreciate much!
Hopefully cheap to run - 2.0 HDI turbo diesel in a little lightweight van?
Have to see:geek:

Managed to get a few pictures of the Leeds meet between the showers.
The pug became German for the day as no one dared park in the French section
