Spotted you this afternoon John on Greenbrae Drive. I was in the white van which flashed you! Good to see both you and the B10 out and about.

Hi Roy, I thought a white van flashed at me but could not think who or why. Now I have the answer. Decided to take it for a wee run out this afternoon while it was dry and before the rain starts.

I decided to do the same with my B10 V8S, first trip this year, not so lucky with the rain, needed a boat on the M25 yesterday.
Now looks like it has not been cleaned for a year :cry:

One trip in the rain undoes all your cleaning efforts quickly at this time of year. Never liked the M25 in the dry when I had to use it often some years ago and much worse when the weather was miserable.
The recent work that was done on the car included a new wiper motor and the large wiper arm that was seizing and burning out the motor, both expensive items but I appear to be avoiding testing them in real conditions :!: :?
