Been a while since I have been on here, but just wanted to say that I had a silver Monaro drive past me on Banbury Lane about 10.45 this morning, looked and sounded great, and then saw a silver Clubsport (?) driving from Towcester direction towards J15A on the A45 just before 11am. Two Holdens in a day, felt like I had seen two Unicorns. Hope the drivers had great days smilebeer very envious

Morning. The silver VT was me going to santa pod, where the 2 year old alternator sha7 itself. At least we got 6 runs in.
Bought a battery in halfords northhampton, refunded it next day in south london. Now I have experienced range anxiety of a battery car.
Luckily the week before I programmed the new injector deadtimes for a low volt scenario !!
