Why thank you all, for all your kind welcomes and halps words. I like it here.
I fixed it. Mr Admin and Mr Haynes-Blokes and Messrs all of you - ta. Its a bit delving down these parts as a rule (Cornwall/Devon border) and not just as of lately (everywhere else by the looks of it) and I was getting a bit pissed off at running out to weight down the tarp with yet more chunks of Dartmoor's finest. The gap was about 4" yet its amazing how much sky wet can blow in and the interior is in especially good condition for a heavy mileage motor (I understand its spent most of its 180K plowing steadily up and down the M3). Its already getting marked with Plutonoum27debris but I've got a massive back space to chuck it all into so it won't need turning out for Some Time.
I was off up the A38/M5 and then the winding gets-overly-macho-bikers-every-time bits from the Tiverton exit up through Exmoor to Minehead last Friday and it was atrocious driving especially as the prats on the Devon Expressway appear not to understand that one and all must a) Observe the wet surface distance rules in spades down there (too many grockles bringing the Rover out for its annual airing to the seaside) and NEVER EVER remotely tailgates when its raining so hard that visibility is down to 200yds if yer lucky and b) Turns those headlights - they probly dunno they've even got foglights so we won't go there - the fxxx ON. Goddamn. Anyway it (the Plutonium Tank) did the job beautifully.
Yes. RWD. Never go back.
