This chap has been to few meets
B reg if recollect with gold stripes think he was at sytner meet last year

Lots of brightly coloured fwd base models with lots of plastic hung on at any angle running on massive wheels they don’t have the torque to turn. How hilarious

Couple of busy weekends C2 is now MoTed and serviced, oil leak solved, wheels have new gaskets on the caps (I got the silicone all off) cleaned and coated in G5 wheel armour. XD3 broke a spring last week so got 2 new ones from stealers and tried to fit yesterday, but no joy loosening bolts. Visit to...
