Title: Northampton Bound
Post by: Lawman on 07 August 2006, 00:46:33

Tomorrow morning, Me and a friend are heading 'down south' for a few days :)

It will be an 800-ish mile round trip in an M-reg 1.4 Corsa with 99,900 miles on the clock.
We did this journey earlier this year and the little car never missed a beat  8-)


Let's hope all goes well again!

Don't miss me too much  ;D

Weyhey!! We made it back up!  :D

On friday it took us 6 hours due to horrendous traffic at roadworks about Birmingham and just a traffic jam a bit further north. Im really glad that bit of motorway isn't my daily commute!

All in all, an 864 miles round trip, car sounding under the weather and me having a very flat backside.

Note to self, Buy Omega Elite before doing it again :)

Happy days 8-)
