Different type of show Gary and different time of the year. to be honest it`s only good if u need parts, i`m only going because i have gear to deliverr and to show my support for the M100. oh and to have a chat with the lads.

OK I'll say outta your way Monty...

Men are like a fine wine.
They begin as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the sh * t out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.

Probably won't make it, both cars are out of commission

It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to sit on your arse with a blank look on your face.

Blue car developed a bad gearbox problem, its out of the car at the moment, and red car has developed very noisy wheel bearings - its drivable but I'm not going to travel to Stoneleigh and back with it. The noise would drive me nuts even if the wheel stayed on. The rear bearings have less than 1000 miles on them, I've had a pleasant chat with the garage concerned about it but I can't get it sorted in time for the weekend.

Monty, don't worry, I know you have difficulty being a 'lad' too :gray:

As the M100 is the featured car of the Show have parts supplier who are attending been informed of this so that they will trawl their parts bins for M100 parts to bring up/down?
Could the 'Hokey-Cokey' actually be what it's all about?

Chris
I know for a fact that PM's been told.
Might be worth a call to each of the other regulars thouigh; Southwest etc. If someone's got the time/enthusiasm.

Well if they bring along any of their "M100" wiper blade sets again they know what they can do!!!
I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges.

I've had my SW wiper blades on for about three years now - still perfect.

Same here - they're missing the damn metal pins in the middle that the wiper arm hooks into.
Althogh I canabalised them to get a decent one on the drivers side that actually wipes!

Granted, the Fed ones come without the integral cross pin (on to which our arms fit), but I just whacked a thin bolt and nut through the whole in the blade mounts to create a pin.
