1600 miles in 4 days and we only broke down once!!! Wiper motor packed in on the M3 in rush hour in the worst rain I have seen in months :( Picked up by brakedown and delivered to a mates in London. 1 trip to volkspares and 20 mins later and we were off. Up the A1 the across the A66 and up to Glasgow for a night on the piss then up the A82 to Oban and Fort William. Then returned 2 Days later all the way back down to cornwall and guess what I only saw 1 c the whole trip in a car park in Oban. Was a very nice J plate 16valver, parked in Combie court, if you are on here she looks sweet. Took a detour up Glen Nevis and took a few snaps. Scared the shit out of a photographer who was taking picks of someone on a trials bike as we screamed past putting the c through her paces on the windy roads. Great fun. Well I think you were all hiding from the rain but here are some picks of our works in progress not to mention some fantastic scenery. T
