This is why I’m becoming less of a fan. They swore blind they wouldn’t sell out and do this (that came from one of the owners - he was standing by me when he said it). Money talks.

Southampton (Eastleigh - about a minute off the M3) next month but not been any updates on whether it’s going ahead.

That belongs to the owners. One of quite a few nice cars they have.

Gutted I decided to self isolate. Genuinely. Been in a foul mood all bloody day as there’s bugger all wrong with me. Even the Clio looked grumpy when I went to grab something from the garage earlier. App now deleted.

100% out bud 👍

Yep but not sure what happens if I check in somewhere and it flags that I should be isolating. Bit s**t really - been careful for 18 bloody months!

I’m switching my Bluetooth off after my 7 day exile. Be up for that mate.

I’ve just had a self isolation warning from Big Brother so regrettably I’m out 🤬 Ticket paid for so happy to give this to someone else. Drop me a DM👍

I’m afraid I’m out. Not out of choice 🤬

Hell yes 👍

OK chaps, now 7am start at Chieveley and 8am at Hopcrofts Holt then straight up to C&M 👍

No worries - 7am start at Chieveley?

With some help from @Tim we have a suggested route for next Saturday. 7.15 Chieveley services then B4494 to Wantage. A338 to Wantage then up to the A420 past Williams F1 and joining the A420. @Tim. Are you OK to take the lead on this bit and I’ll take over once we hit the A34? A420 to the...

These turned up the other day too. Bug remover is excellent, other 2 are new to me. Sigma is superb, decon shampoo is to perk up the coatings on the dailies.

Another winner from Garage Therapy. This time sigma ceramic spray sealant. Always a bit sceptical of this type of product as the term’s been used and abused to death. This however is seriously good stuff. Easy to work with (spritz, buff, flip towel and buff again), leaves a really nice gloss...

Few new (to me) bits for some interior TLC. Read lots of good things about the scrub pads.

Not sure chap. I was suggesting Chieveley and then Hopcrofts Holt then across to Banbury and C&M.

Chieveley services looks like a likely first stop for people coming up the A34.

She honestly doesn’t know mate. She thought it might have been a bird but there’s no ‘residue’ so to speak 🤢 and she does recall that something may have fallen off the vehicle in front. Either way, car can be fixed and she’s OK.

Thanks chap. 1. Car feels less jittery. Was on standard mounts before and it sometimes felt nervous. This has gone. 2. Turn-in sharper. Drive home was a mix of tight B roads and sweeping A’s and it turns really crisply. Really inspires confidence to push on a bit more than before. 3...

PMS top mounts and strut brace fitted today. No noticeable increase in NVH but turn-in does feel a bit sharper. Had alignment done too which may have helped. Sadly Mrs Coops’ Clio had a moment today - she hit some debris at around 50mph. She’s OK which is the main thing and luckily only bumper...

That’s settled me on cleaning my spare hubs up. Looks excellent!

Many thanks mate. Labour of love!

The only fallout remover that gets close to BH is Iron-X and you can have it in lemon fragrance too. I say ‘lemon’ when what I mean is ‘lemon lying on a pile of dog sh*t’

I called Kwik Fit in Bognor (closest to Gary Spooner’s place) and the lad there said all OK to do when I explained what I’m doing. We’ll see what they say when I actually turn up lol.

Thanks pal. Car spends more time going round corners than in a straight line. I’d say cornering was medium to hard usually.

Bring whatever you like I reckon. Think quite a few are coming in cars other than Clios - it’s about the craic for me. Ain’t gonna judge!

Thanks chap 👍

Stellar mate. Thank you 👍

I’ve never had the alignment done properly and having some bits done next week it’s about time I sorted it. Spec will be PMS solid top mounts Standard shocks Eibach Sportline springs Camber bolts Road use only - no plans for any track stuff. And any good alignment places in north Hampshire...
