Thanks,

Its a great car for the little country lanes, not the fastest car, but it is quite quick and so responsive, with great steering feel, it feels alive.

The wheels were brand new a few weeks ago. I love the look of the white steels on the rallye, but they are just difficult to keep clean.

The roads are in the Brecon Beacons.

The first few photos are on the road heading north through Ystradfellte. The A4059 is a nice bit of road as well, although I didn't get any pic on there.

The last few are heading north through Llanthony, heading towards Hey-on-Wye.

Also, I worked out that I averaged 36MPG. Thats over 210miles, some duel carriageway, A roads and quite a few on the single track roads, so not bad for a quick little car.

Had I been in my Westfield I would have done about 25mpg and lost my sump on the rough roads. 106 rallyes are great.

Thanks Matt, cool pic.

It looked better on saturday as it was polished up and the wheels were clean, but I didn't get chance to clean it before the breakfast meet.

It is a great little car to drive.
