Shame you couldn't blast on down to Attleborough for the meet yesterday. Hopefully meet you there before too long

You didn't know?
Look out for Crazy Harry's posts, breakfast meet and a chat last Saturday morning every month. Not much doing this time of year, but yesterday we discussed doing some runs and maybe a show or two come the spring. Whereabouts are you anyway?

Sounds good! I’m in Thorpe, Norwich.
 
Today I used the Meguires bucket with grit guard as well as some of the products that was in it - especially the Hybrid Ceramic Wax spray that seems to work as indicated. I also clayed the car due to all the sap and stuff falling out of trees here!

The Meguires Hybrid Ceramic Winter Kit from Halfords seems to be good value for money - with an extra discount when you order on line.
 
Took mine for its end of season / pre hibernation run thro Weardale and South Northumberland.
Filled it to the brim and put it into the garage with the battery maintenance charger clipped on. (To the under bonnet posts of course!)
 
Craig this was something I was looking to do when I get my front bumper resprayed.

Is there any reason why you didn't just have it bonded to give the flush look?
 
Would have meant bumper off job and spray shop. This way the reflectors removed and sprayed myself at a cost of about £15. Quite a difference to a spray shop job and although I wasn’t that bothered with the clear reflectors one was looking very tired and would have needed a new set which would have cost more than the tidy up and spray and reattaching.
 
:thumbsup:

Next question..........................

You look like the ride height I'm after (sort of), would you be so kind as to measure just roughly from the centre of the front & back wheels to arch? I asked a question a few months back and someone mentioned that before I bought mine it was fitted with standard springs rather than M springs???

Your front looks the same as mine, but my rear defo sits way higher than that!!!

Thanks in advance! :thumbsup:

Snap :)

:thumbsup: The mileage I've been doing each year it'll be another 6 or 7 years before I hit the big 100k :) .

Gave her a good clean & polish today, pumped the tyres up then into the garage, hooked up the Ctek & put the cover over her. Now SORN'd so that's that until March :cry: .
