Well, We are home! Frank completed the 2700 miles again and excelled himself. Full write up to follow.

Unfortunateley we got hit up the back on the motorway which has caused a bit of damage but nothing we can't fix. Full pics and write up soon.

We are having a break from rallies for a while now but can't bear to part with Frank so will be turning him into a trackday car for next year. Expect lots of tech questions to follow. We are hoping to go Saab power with lot's of strippage  :y

Welcome home and well done  :y :y :y

Damage to cars can be repaired... slightly harder to mend humans .. so I hope everyone is OK.

How much did you raise in the end ???

Frank is now sold to a Vaux enthusiast who I know well intends for him to live on in daily driver/track toy guise. (i've just taxed him for the new owner at his expense)

Frank will be at Billing and Coombe again this year  :y
