ound:ound:ound: Thought first rule was never trust fuel gauge and fill your tank to the top

Didn't run out of fuel, just broke the gauge

He didn't even use all the Jerry cans in the back. It did really really well today. Just had a slight problem on one bit of Parkamoor because it has funny springs or something

looking forward to seeing them once you upload them

35L of fuel used today by the V8 not bad going especially as I was ragging the **** out of it



On a side note.......engines coming out for a new rear crank seal and the disco will be used for day two

35L of fuel, one split rad hose, half a litre of engine oil, a front axle low on oil and a slightly more worn gearbox later as it now hates third gear.......theres some pics!

It survived one day, the disco will see out day two before the series gets a well deserved overhaul. Engine will be coming out and having a new rear crank seal, new full size rad to stop it getting warm (had to stop a couple of times) possibly a new gearbox with full synchro and a lot more EP90......seatbelts will also be fitted!









Prepared well.......fire extinguisher and fuel!

I reckon that may have pushed our noise levels way into ASBO limits! Mines not exactly quiet
