i'm no ,longer going CBA and also on the House hunt for back in the North East as just waiting my start date at a new job , have a good 1 tho lads
 
I will know on Thursday if I am making it to CSS as my car is down with James and mike in Staines getting an rs2 fitted amongst other things. The reason I dont know if the car will be ready is my replacement engine was supposed to be delivered on Thursday 13th but its not turning up until tomorrow afternoon (the 18th) so you can see they have their work cut out for them, although they are going to try their best to get it sorted in time.
No Clio no CSS, not driving over in a Chevrolet spark :dead:

When Mike gets started on an important job for an event he just doesnt stop till its done IME, even if its 4am the next day when he finishes like with Tims Megane for lemans last week, so fingers crossed you will be ok!
 
I spoke to James earlier today and they did say him and Mike are willing to put in some hours to try to get it ready in time. Lots to do on it. Old engine is out so they have belts and dephaser to do on new engine, new clutch and gearbox oil, disks and pads up front, rear pads, fit rs2 get rs2 mapped so fingers crossed. If it is ready in time I'll be turning up to collect it with a big crate of beer for Mike and James.

At least Duxford has plenty to do if we do have to hide from the rain all day.

To he honest, going by recent weather forecasts it could be bright sunshine by the time we get to Saturday. They never seem to get it right.

I might join you guys. It does mean driving 20 minutes in the wrong direction for me though so it depends on what time I wake up.

Unlucky mate!

Think I'm taking mine to Finedon car wash tonight.
 
Well I will know later today if I'm traveling up with you guys or heading to Duxford from Staines.
My Clio is on the RR this afternoon for remap, all depends what time its finished. James and Mike really pulled the stops out to get the car ready, as of 4pm Wednesday The replacement engine was still in its donor car they managed to get engine out, change belts and dephaser, change clutch, fit rs2 manifold and fit new engine in my car. Got a text at midnight last night to say the car is running!

My brother was kindly going to wash my car this afternoon.

Being the t**t I am, I set the alarm before I went to work, and then took the only alarm fob I have with me to work with all my keys.

Dirty car for me then!

Still looks s**t, and probably a waste of money by the time we get there
 
Really think you bedford boys should meet us at fourwentways if your not? its literally 5minutes away from Duxford and would be good to get the whole EOE lot together for once :p
