Paul,

It'd have been more than a couple of weeks ago - like Red, I've joined the Cavalier club. Yes, you can now find me crusing around in a white SRI. Its cheaper to run, cost £400, can leave it anywhere (unlike Scoob - had CD head unit stolen at Ikea) its solid and still good fun when you plant the throttle and turn the wheel.

As for Scoob, well it is having a well earned rest, though not entirely through choice - may have head gasket or worse (actual cracked heads) problem

So until I replenish my funds after the recent house move, Scoob will stay dormant in the garage until I can afford to get the work done and relpace the head unit.

Thanks to Red for the enquiry - I'm fine and will soon get back into the Scooby swing albeit in the Cavalier for now. Good thing is, while the Cav does the mundane journey to work/shops/general motoring etc.. Scoob can get prepared for its long awaited return to the track after a long layoff - c'mon!

Catch y'all l8r,

Kev

Phil,

don't jest m8, as much as i luv the car, i've had serious thoughts bout getting rid! so when u getting urs???

we are only getting our sofas 2moro (ordered in 2002), washer/dryer was a month l8 & the builders still haven't fixed the spa bath among other things - so no house warming yet

sorry i haven't been in touch - wot wiv car probs, busy work schedule and setting up of new businesses i've been quite busy.

i think Scoob will stay - can't part with it... can i???? it will take a back seat so 2 speak and prob just do track days, meets etc..

n e way, that's all from me 4 now - apologies 4 the txt speak, but am muching while i type. better get on wiv some work then.

bye 4 now,

K

ps Tony..

got home ok in the end after several coolant stops - funnily, by the time i got home the car was running fine and the temp altho high didn't exceed the max(was missing, running extremele hot and kicking out clouds of steam/smoke when we left TSL and 4 most of the journey).

i am gonna remove the thermostat 2nite/2moro and test it over the wkend - i will really b kicing myself if that solves it as i thought it might have been the thermostat all along and have now blown my head gaskets or worse... cracked the heads.

still, we will soon see.

He's disappeared of the face of the earth (well, Scoobynet anyway!!) I know he was moving out to the sticks of Sutton in Ash but not seen him around for ages either? Is everything ok with him or have I missed something?!
