Not only washed it-first time since beginning of May-but polished it too!Still comes up pretty well but in truth could really do with clay barring or similar,but unlikely to get that sort of treatment!!!!

Watched the radiator leak start to become more than a couple of drips as the engine cools down.  :'(

Loaded four wheels (out of twelve in the shed  ::)) in the boot ready to drop off tomorrow to be refurbished.

350+ miles in the 3.2 over the weekend in Wales, performed well. Stuffed full of things, ferrying people around. Reset all settings leaving, averaged 32.8mpg on the way down  :o

Got home and it's back to normal, got 26 over the tank, lots of little runs in town so to be expected.

Do admit, car loaded in the boot and 4 up, still effortless power  8)
