[gaunty]

multi story are great love the looks you get

just any road that i can give it enough beans to make it pop or set that bloody dump valve off

[edmondo]

I have had kids cover their ears when I have gone past - so so funny

the road from Highworth to Lechlade is great cos its got good straights and some great bends..................did you see the looks we got when we sat in traffic in Lechlade when we came back from Big D's?

[gaunty]

260 - happy with that?

what was your torque figure?

[MalcB]

It's OK for now. Torque was between 250 and 260 ft/lb from 3500 til' 5000 rpm

[edmondo]

whats next then?

[MalcB]

Drive it

Nothing else planned at the moment.

[edmondo]

bet you have noticed the difference

[MalcB]

Yes indeedeee.

Couldn't play too much on the way back but looking forward to the drive home through the lanes

[edmondo]

whats mrs malcb gonna make of it?

[MalcB]

She'll be Ok with it. She drives a Mitsi 3000GT

[edmondo]

blimey ..............and she is not interested in becoming part of a club then?

[MalcB]

Nah! Not really a petrolhead. She drives it. I clean it and look after it.

My 2 sons are into the car club thing but they are more VAG orientated.

One's got a Leon Cupra and the other a Golf R32.

We've also got a classic Cooper S for sunny days.

[edmondo]

very nice

quite a stable of performance cars you have there

[MalcB]

and there's more....................... one ancient Mk2 Golf GTi (wifes runabout), bit of a "shed" but roadworthy and

another Mk2 Golf awaiting 1.8T transplant. Oh and my daughters Pug 106.Way to many cars but can't bring ourselves to sell any of them.

[edmondo]

Huge driveway? - Multi Garage? - or just annoy the neighbours?

[MalcB]

Live out in the sticks. Small-holding with Barn. The more space you've got the more cr@p you keep

[edmondo]

very nice..................plenty of room for the fleet then

and no excuse about getting to work when it snows though

[MalcB]

The Scoob was the only car that could get out when the snow was here . So I was playing

taxi service most of the time.
