      Anyone that does less than 1500 miles a year and comes from Norfolk is a raging chutney ferret!

      Should have the car confiscated and given to someone who will use it . If you want to just stare at it, you should have bought a painting of one !

      Nordschleife, there's only two barriers to worry about - the ones on the left and the ones on the right .

        Tracker recomend that you have it seviced EVERY 3 years, where they come out and check the tracker is still working, and replace the battery... (otherwise they can't guarantee it will work...)
        And I would recomend that every does take this up with them - costs 70 quid or so....

                    Despite the fact that I took it off the road in March, and it won't be back on the road until June / July, it will still do 4-5000miles this year (1700 of which will be going to the Ring and back).

                      Hardly at all

                      It is still mid resto - but hopefully out before the end of the summer. Last year she only covered 1000 miles, and is used as a toy. That said it did come out in the rain - on the way to nearly every show last year!!

                      After the resto, it will be really hard to take it out in the rain again

                          I bet you won't do the same mileage though you bufty queen .

                          However, when my car is done, you will be able to put a 110miles on yours, as you will be getting the job of buftying it (paid of course), as I want it to look mint before the Fast Ford mag feature, and by the time it comes back from paint, it will have even more dust etc inside the car and engine bay .

                              more than happy to clean yours if you trust me bud.

                              and as for the bet,you are more than likely right though although i do plan on getting to the ring in it just once to poodle round.

                                Just been out in mine tonight

                                I have done 500 miles in the last 4 weeks. Try to use it every weekend.

                                Only come off the road when I have a bit of work to do and that job usually gets bigger and bigger
