Winter Blatting
Guinness - 28/10/07 at 04:50 PM

Just been out for a blat. Cold morning, dry roads, car running brilliantly, all combined to remind me why I spent so much time / money on the car (not too mention the skinned knuckles)! Now really looking forward to Wednesday night meet at the Church Mouse and next Saturdays blat!

Towards the end of the route I drove past Jambojeef's house and he was out and about in his newly completed car.

Hmm turbo!

Just invested in an HID conversion for those dark, rainy nights. It should help me dodge the local wildlife if nothing else

I just LOVE driving on a crisp and sunny winter's day - the engine works so well!

Bundling up in warm clothing is a PITA (no screen or heater) but it's worth the effort... I would never SORN my car over the winter as there's too much fun to be had...
