I took mine out the other day, went down 2 gears rather than one and nearly crashed into the van I was passing. Bit swifter than the old Audi
diesel.
ATB Dan.
The less I worked, the more i liked it.

Passed MOT test a few hours ago, first one since taking the car off the road at the start of 2008. Chuffed as flip. Went for a quick spin, certainly
brisk but grinning all the way Insurance is naff all now that i'm nearly 30, it's about a third what I paid when I last had it on the
road.

Was going to tax it, then remembered about a bill that needs paying first, maybe next week then....., managed to get the many covers off it and give
it a dam good clean and polish however, I always love the 1st run of the year, you forget just how quick they can be ....

Finally got mine sorted (I hope!). Using my old Sierra MC with a new set of seals but will change it as soon as I can for a Fiesta or Fiat one as most
on here say they give a better feel to the pedal. SORN at the moment but will be getting her back OTR at the end of March. Can't wait
It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

Passed IVA in Novemeber and immediately SORNed it and took it apart.
Finished putting it back together today and off to buy a tax disc in the morning.
I'm very excited!

They are still chucking salt down like it's going out of fashion up here so car still tucked away
Shame as well because we've been having some stunningly nice weather.

Mine is in bits in the garage, and lots of things going on in life at the moment, struggling to get time in the garage! Huff! Reading posts like
this will make me find time I'm sure! Have fun all and drive safely!

My Fury is due into Auckland port tomorrow morning. It should be through customs within a couple of weeks, and then hopefully I can get it on the
road within a few months. It's Autumn now so it's just going to get wetter from now on!
