Bit of an overdue update here!
As planned, I changed the silver bits for black bits when I put the black winter wheels and tyres on...
In November we moved house and relocated back to the countryside, so all the focus was very much on that.
The car has been faultless, with a sensibly priced service completed last month at an independent garage. The winter tyres have been thoroughly worth the money spent, performing excellently when called upon. They do leave a lot to be desired when pushing on though, it’s a bit of an eye-opening experience driving it hard on those!
It will soon be time for summer tyres so I’m deliberating over those again. I think it’s likely I will go for good quality mid-range tyres rather than spend what could be double on the best. It’s never going to be the best car dynamically and Pilot Sports are never going to change that, having used the likes of Hankook, Kumho and Uniroyal on track, I’m also confident that they’re very capable tyres not to be sniffed at.
In other car news I’ve managed to get out on track in the MX2000 and Clio a few times, they both continue to develop at a rate of knots and provide lots of fun!
And I bought something I’ve been looking for for some time, a mk2 CRX, in the specification I always wanted, Torino red pearl and a fairly rare non-sunroof tintop. It’s not be any means a minter but has very little rust and is something I can cherish and improve over time!
