We missed the snow here, but it is still cold.
Or is this Italian electrics doing what they do best ??

We're already nearby, no major problem for us to get Nottingham to Newark, so we'll be there. Probably 1ish mate.

Yep, no room for dilution today! Lol!
Cant complain, still a great fish n chips, good natter with mates, and a bit of a drive in the Italian Stallion which I've missed terribly,
Top day.
I vote we do it again once the weather improves, if nothing else, it definitely proved itself a great venue and once we get a few more heads there, it should be a cracking meet

It was nice to be out in it Keith, new gearbox, clutch, slave cylinder, fresh oil and a filter that doesn't leak,
Oh, and an exhaust with a renewed sound and soul!
I was looking forward to the opportunity of a spirited drive out, but the weather and roads had other idea's sadly.
Wheels are 18" × 8.5j/9.5j bbs lm style, and a beggar to keep clean this time of year!
I should have fitted some winters but I couldn't help it!

Just the front number plate lets her down.
Only joking, 164 is another gem of a car.
Love the presence it has on the road, especially when it sits lower. Why the hell can't we have nice , flat roads
