Welcome Kev,
I too also have car nuts, and if I may give you some hard won advice, you're better off on a forum that specialises in chronic medical conditions rather than this one. There are some good ones about, but don't get mixed up with the animal ones, - following instructions sometimes turns out to involve a lot of guesswork.
I find that this time of year is the worst, it must be something to do with the temperature or humidity or something, I'm sitting here typing this with my ar*e in a bucket of WD40, and that bast*rd behind the counter at the chemist is just laughing all the way to the bank.
Good luck.
H

Kev,
Welcome to the forum and don't be shy about taking part and posting - there's plenty of banter and humour, and you can gather from H's post the odd one fixated on something or other different! Keep you eye on the forum particualrly as we head towards LE Mans time for the latest of what is happening where,

Hi Kev, I will be making the pilgramage from Chester again this year as I have done for the last 10. Next year I will be on the track as a race marshal, before the first chicane on the Mulsanne.
Just finished a 22month restoration on an original quattro so will be taking that along for the trip!!
Welcome to the forum, loads of good info and banter on here !!

On Sunday theres a quattro meet at The Helsby Arms at lunchtime so if you're at a loose end and want to see some real cars come along !!

Mid Jan for a meet up would be good, at least the 6 month countdown would have started |
