Either that, or we meet up at the one in Darwen? The other 98RON place? Is that the BP place? The one that used to be a Shell station? D.

National Debt of China, m8...... :cry: The mpg readout broke 33mpg on the way back. In comparison, FM sounds like he is on 3.3mpg......

Lol - thats what FM said!!! D.

Good to see everyone! Ive just inhaled three gallons of Optimax, following FM back to Whitebirk! ;) D.

I PMd Chris as well - though I can appreciate hes probably got a lot on his plate at the moment.... D.

Sounds good. Not sure how long I can stay for though - may have enough time for a quick drink, however! D.

£15.2k? I know that was list, but that seems quite expensive for a hatch.... D.

Pointless trivia really, but how much were Willys brand new? How did they compare in price to other similar cars (if there ever were such things then?) Cheers, D.

Rich - any idea what the food is like over at the Windmill? D.

Cool.... Junc 5 roundabout - meet with Leeshez, onwards to Maccas just off Junc 6 for FM, then a guided tour over to Shell where we meet Rich at the Windmill Pub next door.... All for the sake of 97RON petrol! :D D.

Reno Manchester.... The wifes from Reno Bury.... D.

Hector - try Sainsburys Bank insurance. They were nearly £400 cheaper than anyone else I tried - and Im 30! D.

P-reg Punto Sporting - the older 1.6 8v version. Thought it was the bollox at the time! P170 NVU. Ill never forget that reg... :cool: D.

Thats mad. I had a quote on an Evo VI some years back for much less than that. Do you live in a dodgy area?! :p D.

Junc 5 roundabout at 12 oclock, it is then! Ill be there about 5 past or something. Which way are we heading then? Back up to Junc 6 or down towards Junc 4? Leeshez - mines not blick at the moment - more a nice shade of streaky grey from all the bird-sh*t! D.

Im fine with either... Junc 5 is closer to me, but if 6 is more straight-forward....? FM - whats best for you, m8? Rich - do you want to just turn up at Shell, if its that close to you? D.

Still got half a tank at the moment, but Tuesday should be fine for me. Theres never a wrong time to increase the octane.... ;) How does 12.30 sound with everyone? I may need directions from FM or Leeshez??! D.

Sorry guys - a week delay in coming back on this one. :oops: The car was dropped off at Reno this morning and I picked it up on the way home. They said they had sorted out a technical issue but didnt go into detail as to what it was? :confused: That was even after I asked what the technical...

Leeshez - carry on with a decent MPG return and were unlikely to meet you at the Shell garage on the other side of Blackburn... Hurry up man and put your foot down! Looking to get a refill either on Monday or Tuesday...... D.

At the Rawtenstall turnoff, M66. It was parked right outside the front door tonight. No CS stickers that I could see - had a bit of rust over the drivers side rear arch (not that I looked at it too much!) L-plater.... D.

If it beats any Golf GTi, then Im happy... :cool: D.

Looks good, imo. I dont like heavy tints though... D.

I must admit, I have eyes in the back of my head whenever Im at a petrol station. You can never be too careful these days. I could easily (and quite shocking to myself, thinking about it :o) shoot someone who tried to take my car. First problem, is that I dont have a gun and secondly, things...

... going past Blackburn Hospital on Haslingden Road. Flashed him, but got no response. :cry: They look strangely beefier than normal 182s. Looked very good. D.

Rich - youve no excuse not to turn up yourself then?! D.

Sounds fine by me m8. Ill probably be looking at Monday/Tuesday of next week when I fill up - I roughly get a weeks worth out of a tank of juice. Thats assuming I have the car back by then? Reno have it booked in on Friday to have a look at the creaking from the suspension. I can just see...

Welcome to the 182 mob! They are cracking cars and quite forgiving for the most part. Just take it easy and get used to how it feels. Im still learning after 8 months - its not something you can do in a week! :D D.

Ignore me - just being a mong! :p When are you next due for some Optimax? I could do with following you and finding out where this damn place is! D.

FM - is it me, or are you stuck on 1,500 posts? :confused: D.

LOL - definitely wasnt me. I got fecking lost trying to find that Shell garage out towards Mellor Brook. I tell you - Blackburn is the eastern edge of the Bermuda Triangle!!! D.
