Sounds like a plan, I`ll do my best bud either way.

I`ll give you a ring when I know more.

A really really HUGE THANK YOU to Nick Mann yesterday for all your fine work you did on my car, what a difference driving home!!/woot2

The gear changes are now spot on and the car seems to be a lot smoother with new plugs, Diff & Oil`s Etc.:thumbsup:

Missed the ferry by 10 minutes and had to wait till 10pm for another one /wall

Did`nt get in till 11.35 last night.

POM a big apology dude for not having time to stop but there will be a next time bud!
I was just knackered and thought I could catch the 8.30pm ferry but alas no.

It cost me yesterday Mike £34 return via Southampton which is approx 11 mile crossing each way.

It cost Apeman69 when he came over £74 return for the same journey that was from the Island to the mainland but that was over Cowes week (Sailing do)

£78 for a bogus return, I only wanted one way. This was cheaper than booking one way! Car plus passengers.

Ben did a great job. The 3000 was running like dog on the way up, only firing on 5 cylinders, but after a service including plug change she was purring like a pussy cat on the way home. Well pleased.:happy:

Sounds good Malc, glad you got sorted too.

What would we do without guys like Ben, Nick and all the others (To many to name as it becomes a reward ceremony speach)


EDIT:- Switch works great,/thankyou
