Was over there today having the alignment checked and altered, cheers Andy feels like a new car now

There was a S reg classic leaving at around half 2 as I arrived, if it was anyone here I was in the V reg classic just pulling in.

For those of you going tomorrow, have a look at the lights in the reception area

I was there @ 11 for an intermediate oil change service & some of Andy's magic. I had to sit in the dark as the lights were still settling in. Paul did offer to put them on before I left but I declined the offer as I didn't want to risk them dropping out of the ceiling.

Thanks for fitting me in guys at short notice & I was getting a lot less tyre squeal on the roundabouts after dropping Jess at work tonight so cheers Andy.

Same here although they did risk turning them on as I was about to leave, they didn't drop

I turned up as you were leaving, there were some great looking and sounding cars....made me feel a little inadequate
The grey GB270 was my favourite, looked and sounded great.
I`m booked in on the 20th to have some gauges fitted, my first mod , so this time I`ll have a chance to say hello.

I`m sure that that one, which isn`t what I said it was, was one!!! My eyes must be playing me up or my dyslexia or both......no offence meant but still a nice sounding car.....not sure I want to meet Mark now he might be well with me.
My only defence is I`m new to the Subaru world and I`m used to the differences between GTOs.
Blimey have I grovelled enough??

They only made the GB270 saloon in Blue and the wagon in the Grey.

Lesson over for today.

I know what you mean by it sounding nice though........... got a lovley ROAR as it passes you too as I found out earlier on.

Mind you so does Dazza's..........

Oh and I forgot to say thanks for to the lads at Xtreme..........I think it was a bit of curiosity on there part also but they kindly stuck there all singing all dancing Geo contraption on the GB to see if the correct settings had been done from factory and as its only done 1300 miles it was "almost" new.

Cheers lads!

Cars now complete - apart from the AP's.........

Great little meet and drive.

Thanks from me too for Xtreme I had my stearing rack sorted and my alignment checked and altered as it was way out and it now drives like a scooby should again The reason you three pulled away on the A130 was because I went off at wickford.

Good to see you all, sorry I couldn't make posers but I will be at HWH on Thursday
