Well Ben safely made it to Toddington services on the M1, albeit about 3/4 hour late, but at least he got there. I left Ben around 9.30 so that should give Matt a time line to work around. He says he can only do around 55 mph as well to keep it safe. Thanks for the bits lads, i will now spend the weekend getting the SDL rebuilt. HOPEFULLY.

Having seen the recent article in CCW concerning the rise in classic car thefts,I'm pleased to see someone has dumped a tatty Range Rover on my drive blocking the entrance thus making sure my pristine TC Coupe is safe......................perhaps from light fingered humans but now it's sitting on a trailer the wind is blowing the rust off :problem:
