Got the 960 tested,advisories for rear brake pads getting low.So that's two out of three vehicles tested into next year Just need to find enthusiasm to do something with the Omega

Drove over a speed bump yesterday which caused and almighty bang from under the Barge.

Backed it onto the ramps expecting to find a blown shock... Nope, just the exhaust is no longer supported between the cats and the back box... The mounts just ahead of the diff having rotted away. Exhaust is original and otherwise perfect.

Had a quick poke around whilst under there... Beginnings of a crusty patch on the nearside just ahead of the wheel, no need to remove anything to deal with it, literally a couple of inches square. Rear tyres almost at the wear bars.

So potential MoT list:

Set of tyres.
Exhaust hangers.
Ball joint.
2" plate.

MOT pass today, no advisories

Another year of luxury motoring well done..👍

Started it for the first time in ages, to drive 15 miles to the local train station.

Should have driven directly to London, as the train journey in was hell.  Fully rammed like a tube train at rush hour, not even any standing room left in the toilet cubicle.

Obviously, hardly anyone wore a mask,  because nobody has to take any responsibilities for there actions any more. And COVID is all over anyway.

Scary !

Driven the RRS over to Fakenham in Norfolk help a pal move some farm equipment to some land he has purchased ,his Toyota has given up after 22 years  & doesn't trust it towing heavy loads the RRS coped with it all easily .

Yet again tied to fathom why pierre has a fuel pressure problem that makes it really hard to start (cold or hot) and brings up STOP message when the engine is under load.
Pumping the primer bulb helps with starting, and easing off the throttle slightly puts the STOP message off on the dash, until some load is applied again.
Fault code (p0089) is a fuel pressure regulator code, but google tells me that can actually indicate any number of faults somewhere between the fuel cap and the injector nozzles.
The Swan Vesta option becomes more tempting by the day.

I suppose someone has to go there. 

Far too close to my sister for my liking

Fortunately mine lives in Perth. The Oz one.
