yup 'twas us. Having to take it a bit steady as well, as the rear section of the exhaust dropped off in the pub car park. Lack of spanners (to undo the circular clip) meant that we had to bang it back on with a heavy object and hope that it was wedged well enough to get us home.

Luckily, he has already got a new exhaust on the way....

Also, the OZ split rims that are on are looking a bit tired, so we have been looking at refurbishing them / putting some new ones on. Here's some photoshop jiggery-pokery- any comments?

Kinda like those myself Steve - also the Tuscan Spiders (if I can persuade Gordon to upgrade the wheels on the purple beast).

There's a special prize to anyone who can guess what the heavy object was that was used to bray the exhaust back together.

Yeah, like my six-pack (or is that a party seven)??

Actually it was a brake shoe from a 1991 Toyota Hilux Surf (Gordon's OTHER car - my old Tonka toy). I can recommend one when a hammer (or piece of a dry stone wall) is not handy. Think I'll carry one in the toolkit all the time, I'm sure I can think of lots of uses for it if I put my mind to it.
