Mint but why does the car with the white wheels look so high?

The roads look brilliant, hope you found somewhere nice for lunch!

We did, went to Mambos, they even served us food. :cool:

Eventually! And all at different times too ;) We should have taken up Danny's fine offer of free food at his restaurant, had it not been so far from home.

Yeah, my car has standard Cup suspension. 1 of 3 future mods in the next few months.

It was a good meet, even had to stop twice to help Marky boy.
Me to the rescue with 1L of oil when his 172 went into "safe" mode.

oil and brakes - guid day then?!

Yeah lol, 3 and a half years without a hitch, then the s**t hits the fan all on the same day.
I nearly sh1t myself when the brakes died the third time and I went straight through that junction!! The lady in the jeep about to T-bone me was not impressed.

BTW thanks for the oil Adam, that's one I owe you.

Yeah they had been, with braided hoses too.

Had you bed them in properly Mark? Getting them up to heat and then drive till they cool down? Sounds like they overheated, badly!!

Sounds like another eventful day!

I fitted them! (Runs for cover) But everything is/was tight! We both checked it over! And i was happy enough to let it go sooo....

Dunno, brakes arn't something i rush nor mess about with.

Mark found alot of air in the system...And that wasn't there when it was bled.

We'll have a look at the weekend.

^ Ali and his dad did a proper job with the brakes. Everything was checked and re-checked and the system was bled to perfection. I had a good brake all week until I did some 'keen' driving on Saturday. It defo isnt fade as I had to limp home from Aviemore using gears and handbrake! I bled the system on Sunday and it was full of air, so I'm suspecting it is the master cylinder like the RAC guy said.
