Bit of a fright yesterday with smoke bellowing out of the rear n/s wheel arch. Caliper piston cleaned and re fitted seems OK after a good run fingers crossed? 1 series standing bye just in case

Well its 282 miles to kendal for me. I think the winner will be @Jack Ratt all the way up from way down west.

Yeah long way glad I don't have that drive after a days work. But even your 282 pretty far 100 more than me

@Sean d how is your sat nav attached to the dash? Bloody handy that with the windscreens being so small on the zed. Put a sat nav in and loose 30% of your visability!

 

[Sean d]

Its a top mod that one pal, it was on the dash when I got the car, its just a plastic disc that is fixed with double sided tap and the Tom tom mount sucks onto it as it would your windscreen
