Good to hear your MV6 is running even better  :y

Just ran mine up to Birmingham Airport @ 75mph its running very nicely on that new oil  :y

Only 75mph Tunnie?? :-? If you remove AA's mod it will go a tad faster than that  ;)

TheBoy got 80 out of mine (private road) ;)
The way that got to 80, I suspect it goes at 80+ quite frequently ;)

(Must be when Mrs AA drives it ;))

80? But the max speed limit in this country is 70 :o

Woudnt mind betting the weird handling is down to rear subframe mountings(donuts) being sloppy!!!
Omegatoy
Possibly. More likely to be the broken spring though....  ::)

Sounds expensive and difficult......

About an hours work. TB returning North soon then?

Rear springs have been a regular source of questions so we'll have to get some pics and do a guide.

Ah, but yours has a proper gearbox AA, and no silly third pedal....

Silly me, I forgot 8-)

I like my third pedal, much more fun on the run to MK  ;)

Not as much fun as a V6 though!
