V6 - a few weeks on

[Fred@BTM]

update on how i'm getting on

fuel consumption - motorway its very very good, i drove from Stafford to Gatwick and then back to birmingham (350miles) and the light only came on today, normal driving around town etc etc it drinks a bit more though, turn the AC on and you can see the fuel needle move!! LOL

favourite toy - cruise control

any problems? - yes my right foot! its needs 4 new tyres (see August issue of Practical Performance Car to find out why :evil: )

oh and the driveshaft popped out of the gearbox at Bruntingthorpe, but it went back in again (this was due to me being a hooligan!)

i fitted new discs and pads to it today as the old ones were beyond dead, surprisingly cheap

all in all i love it

oulton park next weekend, i'll report back on how it goes round the circuit
