Hard to believe it's a year since the last Avid road trip, but we embark on the Avid 2000 this morning. Fingers crossed the car behaves we'll and the weather gods are kind.

Weather has not been kind, and clutch slave cylinder let go near the end of day 2. Limped back to Te Anau and now waiting on a trailer to get the car back to Dunedin. Still, it was huge fun while it lasted.

Laid the blame in the wrong place. Slave cylinder was not the initial fault. Rather, the clutch release shaft let go. Took the slave cylinder piston, push rod and clutch release lever with it though.

Fortunately, I have been offered replacement parts by various people (a huge thanks to them), so we will be mobile again in a few weeks.

Hi Andy. I have one coming that is supposedly like that, but have not seen a picture at this stage. Fingers crossed.
