It's somewhat of an obsession with some of us and just as you think there's no more to be done you see more shiny things that you must have :)

I was going to be heading up to JM Imports with a mate to collect his car that day. I've now learned this won't be happening due to a setback whilst mapping.

If that is still the case nearer the time I'm tempted to make the journey up for this meet as I need to put miles on my engine before a drive the following day. Won't be anything like as pleasant a trip in the 8 but needs must some times :lol:
