My mate is going to sort something out and put it on a cd or something. I will let you both know when something is sorted.

That was a nice drive to the pub apart from my car scraping the ground over all the bumps. think i might have less passangers next time

Less than 2 weeks till bolney

I will put the post back to the top for those that are meeting at newlands in the morning

Default Video footage

I've got some footage of a few of us on the way to the fairmile, but I think I need a better stand or my girlfriend needs to hold on a bit tighter as the camcorder hit the roof when we went over that bridge apart from that I was nearly sea sick when I watched it back at home.
I'll sort somthing out for the next meet

Footage looked great from what I could see! Once it's sorted let me know and I'll chuck you a cd or cash etc.

The head gasket went !!!!

This must be what you call "SODS LAW!". I have had one problem in the 18mths I have had the car, and that was replacing the MAF Sensor, then I put it up for sale on Thurs (last wk) and the bloody jead gasket goes. Had to get put on the back of a low-loader and get it to take me home........have just had several quotes this morning and have found out it will be a minimum of £1200, if it is just the head gasket, and nothing else needs doing !!

So, now you see why I am not happy !!!

Well on the up side, at least when this is fixed and I do go to sell the car, the buyer wont have to touch the cambelt, oil & all filter, air cone, etc....it will be like a new engine !!

I said to the guy at the garage this morning that as soon as this has been sorted that I will be putting it back up for sale.....He said that personally he'd probably keep it as it would more or less be like a new re-built engine....it's gonna have: a new cambelt, oil & filter, new head bolts, re-con the air con, new gaskets (turbo, intake, head gaskets, etc, etc), a quite a bit more...

What do I do ??!!??!

Mmmmmm that was a very interesting drive LOL

I dread to think what the footage of me looks like as I left the deck twice on that road. Those Tein coilovers just hold the wheels off the ground nicely

Oh & Paul, my right arm is fine thanks mate Think that might have been something to do with one-arm driving, bumpy road, coilovers & getting air Not what you are implying LOL

BTW how is your "My Little Pony" collection Go on try & deny that one Mr "my e-bay profile says I love My Little Pony" boy LOL

M44GY - that little bridge is soooo much fun! Next time make sure the guy behind has a camcorder for when you get all 4 wheels airborne
That would have been me on the video footage but Paul Davies GF (sorry I didn't get your name ) hand a little camera meeting car roof incident

As ever MAFFA/FULHAM got off to a roaring start and I did my best to keep up, but not knowing the roads can get a little scary sometimes.

All I knew was that if Fulham braked it must be a bit dodgy

Great run guys, see you all again soon

Nah Paul is just a whimp

The "go" pedal on the right is the way forward Especially when approaching a humpback bridge
