Does that mean there is a ticket going spare if anyone can get over to you?

The weather forecast is best tomorrow between 10.00am and 1.00pm when there is a chance of some sunshine. It's meant to be raining the rest of the time.

So Sunday 10.00am car park or ticket booth. How does that sound.

............................Si21 had a mad moment and arrived in true Alpine style, late no speedo temp gauge off the clock alternator semi charging and billowing smoke from under the rear hatch :lol: :lol: :lol:

I arrived with a firm clutch and on my way home Istarted her yes started her :lol: only my clutch pedal went to the floor.

Many thanks to Mr Dell and Annie for helping to bleed the clutch in a freezing force 8 gale in the dark :shock: :lol: :lol: Twice :roll:

She even made it home again :shock:

Its not as bad as it sounds though :wink:

The alternator needs replaced

The smoke was under accelleration uphill - Leaking dip stick tube.

The clutch had never given any problems previously I suspected the worse but we just bled the air out and the pedal returned :P

The temp gauge is not using a properly calibrated sensor which needs to be rectified and can be reasonably easily.

she lives :wink: albeit further teething problems :lol:

Mr G, glad to see that at last you are making good use of one of your cars.
between getting there and getting home, did you manage to see any of the Race Car Live event?
What did you see that I missed?
