Oh yes the RRC wins again, did you see top gear last night?
I cannot believe it lasted so long after he cooked it the first time, good job he did have the 3.9 afterall!!
Makes me want one on carbs all the more!
Talking of which, how is yours going?

Thanks for asking matey , its still at the garage at the moment but thats because after they came and tried to fix on my drive a few times between other jobs the boss finally came and said we will need to take it in (well duh lol) and they picked it up on christmas eve. So with the holidays I doubt they have even started it yet. The concensus was that its the ecu,not helped by the fact the mobile mechanic had wired up the old coil with positive both sides lol. Glad he didnt charge me!
Good job I am not planning on doing anything except eating untill next week

Not sure the 3.9 with its 84mm bores/liner/head gasket/weaker block which engine is best whole debate blah blah blah would have survived a cooking was my point!

i sky+'d top gear, watched it twice now, although i dont like the classic as much as the p38 it was good to see the range rover beat its way through the rain forest and up and down moutains. the sand decent at the end looked like a real buzz, i was considering trying it myself till i realised i hate bugs just like hamond!!!
another excellent special from what has to be the best top gear line up since it began!!!
clarkson is the funniest man on a regular tv show with james may coming close second(he's a rotherham lad and clarkson worker on our advertiser years ago) just goes to show, there is talent in rotherham. you just got to go to bolivia to make it apparent!!!

The look of that road makes me want to go there, not the other way round!
