I think I just F%$^ed up.

So, I've been floundering on the toy rather, and seriously considering flogging it to make way for real life.

But I thought, y'know, get it running and get a video just to make it more appealing.

Next thing I'm half a mile down the road with a 14 year old grinning like a tw@t in the passenger seat.

I need to sell a kidney or something to finish this thing.

You can't best the first drive - IIRC I smiled like a wally for days after mine and then got to finishing it for the SVA test.

I get like that sometimes - wonder if it's worth paying good money to keep running my car, when I don't use it all the time. Then I go out and have a "perfect blast" round the Suffolk back roads and realise why I keep it!

Incidentally, me and the sprog have now bled the brakes, and changed a balljoint.

I think I accidentally got him hooked on cars.

My 7 was off the road for a couple of years, due, I don't know! but I had lost a bit of interest
however a passenger ride in a friends 7, got me back into it, and over the last 3 years, have clocked up around 8k miles

not bad for a car that only comes out at the weekend !!

joining a club, and having runs out, is the way to go, and pretty well all my kit car mileage, is with mates, on a breakfast run somewhere in the sussex kent Hampshire area

Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at

Not using mine much and thought of getting rid but when you drive it you want to give yourself a slap for even thinking it.





Think about it, think about it again and then do it.

I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

You need someone on standby to give you a large slap
