Going south on the A1(M) between Stevenage and Welwyn.

I did wave but not sure whether you had seen me (also in a UK300)
I was going the other way

May have been me, not sure though as drive around not really knowing where I'm going or where i am half the time (just looking for country roads for night time use). Think I remember briefly a uk300 flash pass on other side of road within last day or two, did not have chance to wave and saw you (maybe) to late. sorry

Terry

 

could of been me ( again ) im always going down that way to work ! havent seen you round in a while J - altho do keep seeing loads of scoobys on other side of A1 M - sometimes wave, but probably just look like a nutter to whoever is in front of me ?

 

It was about 11.30 in the morning, I was very late for work due to
4 week old son having a bad night.
I don't tend to see a lot of UK300's about, perhaps because I'm
always half asleep nowadays.

see you around

Jason - quick question for ya, is your CD player crap ? mine jumps round like a nutter, and not just becos Im throwing the car round ? its due in the garage next week and im pi55ed off with it, just wondering if it was only my car ?

 

Carpet,
Yep, I've had probs with mine also.
If I pull away quickly the CD jumps at about 4000 rpm (weird!)
I've looked into replacing it at INCA in WGC (very helpful) but I've just had a baby son (well, my wife has) and £500 for a new stereo is a little low on my agenda.
Are you going to the Prodrive live event?

Had problems with mine too - looks like it's a "Feature" ! Have replaced with a Sony unit :-)

Jase

 

Yep my CD is crap also....

 

The UK300 may have had limited production but the c**p CD player isn't.

 

Ok
Just to be different. I have had no problems with the CD player (are we talking multi changer or head unit) The multi Changer is under the Passengers seat. I rarely use the head unit CD.

That's proberly the kiss of death now

Overall the Head Unit is not what you would call kickin nor the speakers. But hey I did not buy the car for it's stereo.
I do not go around with it blarring out as it spoils the sound of the car
Volume usually set between 12 and 16. Go to 20 and the speakers start distorting.

All the best
Pete

 

Goto 16 and the door trim starts to distort!!!!!!

 

Mines rubbish as well, as you all say jumps around continually, interestingly (or worryingly) when I use the indicators. Sony replacement on the way..

 

Seamus the indicator thing is cos you are going round a corner...

 

Starts when I switch indicator on, gets worse as I make the turn. Know what you mean though, fast roundabouts may as well switch it off.

 

Seamus, Bizzare.... my CD player seems OK, perhaps I am not going round corners fast enough... (hope the Sony fixes it for you).
