Hi Paul, an alternative method is to forget about plumbing in a heater and to use an electric "hairdryer" to cope with the demisting. Mike (Jasper) contributed this to a previous thread: http://www.nfauto.co.uk/demist.htm At Silverstone in the piddling rain on Monday, with two people in my 40...

Great photos and great stories! I particularly love the Bora - everthing a car should be. Charles

Malc, glad to hear the "spectator pass" has been duly issued Was it expensive???? Is anyone else planning to come - either to drive or to spectate? It beats gardening / DIY any day. Charles

Re: 2004 Season Opener - STILL GOING?? [ QUOTE ] Can we have a virtual show of hands by some posts from the original list of probables please. [/ QUOTE ] Dave, I'm embarassed to have to admit that I've run out of browny points at home - mainly by booking the Goldtrack day at Silverstone in...

WTF does this mean? You are Howard The Duck. Who the hell are you and how did you get here? You are so damned weird! Look at you, you're a freaking duck for Christ's sake!!! Go away, it's not like you fight crime or anything. You are the used crap-paper of the super-hero breed. You're horny...

TTT Paul, have we finalised a date for this? My vote is for 25 April. Charles

Who has experience of taking their toddler in a 40? My son is now 3 and a bit years old and I'm wondering how I can take him out in my 40. Safely! I've had a look around on the UK government road safety website and it seems that he's too young for a booster seat and will have to use his car...

Murray, it's here: http://www.findit.co.uk/cars/kitcar/cars/1079840.htm Hope this helps Charles

Hi Simon. My 40 has the matt black as you described - I think there's a picture on www.gtd40club.co.uk Look under the Spa photos. I can't help with the "before" photo, I'm afraid, but I think Malcolm's car would do for comparison? Hope this helps, Charles

Bill, do you have a spare room? I'd love to come and stay! Charles

I've just watched the England team parade the cup right past our office, and I have to say, it brought a lump to my throat. The number of people, the noise, the atmosphere, the singing, the cheering, the whole spectacle. Honestly, it had to be seen to be believed. It reminded me of the...

Malc, I will also be coming. Two adults, one child. See you all there. Charles

[ QUOTE ] Charles, is that a CCTV clip from Crimewatch? Love to All Andrew [/ QUOTE ] Not Crimewatch, but similar! That photo was taken late on at the Great British Beer Festival in August using one of those mobile phones with a camera. In my defence, it wasn't posed and I have no...

[ QUOTE ] which is easily accomidated by wanking on the pipes with a bar thrust in the end of them. A torch to heat a pipe and some wanking can solve a lot of problems [/ QUOTE ] Ron, as Jools said, this doesn't translate too well into "real" English. I read your post at work and was...
