Spa - is everybody back ok?>?> - Page 4

csl_mba · 06-05-2009, 01:41 PM

Car arrived at 00:45

I noticed the car had been loaded front end first (at Dover was back end first), the towing eye was still attached to the rear but they had hitched their tow wire under my bumper and on to the chassis. When lowering it one of the kidneys popped loose and ive noted some paint flecks on the bumper where the tension was.

Took some photos but im getting a bodyshop to repair and get me 2 new kidneys and a full front end respray, the AA said i need to forward photos to them for the claim but they were fairly easy going about it - just he hassle of it

On a mpg note i got from Derby to Brugge on 1 tank of V-Power @ 31mpg (that included some blasting on belgium motorways)

. YOu have to love the 100 RON fuel out there

I'm back too!!!!!

What a day!!! Loved Spa

I was on a real high come the end of the day!

I wish I was on cups though, must get me a set of them. Car was running perfect but needed cups.

1000 miles, Ring, Spa, 5 nights heavy drinking, I am knackered now. Got off the ferry at 8am this morning in Hull and drove to Durham and straight to work....... Still here now..... Must get some sleep...

But what a weekend!!!

Met Glendog & David1, great to meet you both!!!

getting the car back from BMSport Monday all fixed (apparently)

the limp mode was caused by a faulty throttle actuator
