Re: Pics from todays last minute Oban run...(56k have a word)..

Was a good blast today, can't have asked for better weather. Interesting diversion led by Rhys down a cracking singletrack road - I think a lot of us felt like Colin McRae for a few minutes LOL.

Cannae even take a slash in piece without getting photographed in the act though... :eek:

The 197 made a much better impression on me in the flesh than I expected - agree with Rory about the looks (braw from the rear, not so keen on the front) and TBH Paul wasn't exactly getting left behind at any time. Not so sure on the colour (sorry Paul), prefer the deeper red of my CTR (but what do I know, I like CTRs LOL).

All my pics from today are towards the bottom of this page, again a lot of mine are the same as already posted but here's a choice few:

Just worked out my mpg for today: 33mpg exactly. Well chuffed with that considering spending alot of the time above 4k revs, being 2-up, and the aircon on.

(45miles m'way @ 80ish / 200miles of play time / 45miles m'way @ 80ish)

Obviously not trying hard enough...
 
great shots ally! you putting your plate on soon?

Ta. Was trying to get a pic of everyone's chariot, really don't know how I missed Alan's black beauty though (sorry mate, wasn't intentional even if it was dirty :o)

Aye, plate will be on sometime soon, got it on retention til December so whenever I can be arsed! Still undecided what to do with R200 REV though.
 
pretty good plate for a CTR Ally!
Cheers mate. Came with the car :). The car's an ex-Honda publicity car: used to be carted off to shows and promotions, also used for the statics in magazine shoots. Possibly the only standard CTR to have graced the front cover of Japanese Performance (issue 59 Dec '05 ;))
 
you sure it was only 'static' pics??? ;)
Oh yes, believe me I've checked... was a bit worried about it at first I'll be honest though.

It was actually commented on that we're a bunch of plate-sluts up here: out of 6 cars Alan's was the only one without a personalised plate (and I'm a greedy b*****d with 2...)
 
Great day out lads, with some good driving as well. Getting lost was actually the best driving portion of the trip. And I loved my big black puddin' lol.
Here's some of my pics...

PMSL @ the sat nav - mine was the same

Agree about the roads on the diversion, pretty good fun although a little bit too many blind corners and muppets coming the other way.
 
Good pics. Love Stoddies Ph1! What was all the problems with GDI last year, I remember seeing about that on here.
 
All welcome.

Was talking to Rory earlier and we reckon that an early morning Saturday drive would avoid the Sunday drivers and bikers.

Think Oban has been done though.

Glencoe anyone?

Bloody brilliant pics chaps!

I had the chance to drive one of those poverty spec clios yesterday for the first time and you are missing out young Roofus! ;)

Punctures seem to be the order of the day up here since I started the trend back in February.... :dead:
