Tomorrow morning, Me and a friend are heading 'down south' for a few days Smiley

It will be an 800-ish mile round trip in an M-reg 1.4 Corsa with 99,900 miles on the clock.
We did this journey earlier this year and the little car never missed a beat  Cool


Let's hope all goes well again!

Don't miss me too much  Grin

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

Weyhey!! We made it back up!  Cheesy

On friday it took us 6 hours due to horrendous traffic at roadworks about Birmingham and just a traffic jam a bit further north. Im really glad that bit of motorway isn't my daily commute!

All in all, an 864 miles round trip, car sounding under the weather and me having a very flat backside.

Note to self, Buy Omega Elite before doing it again Smiley

Happy days Cool
