Won a Mars bar icecream after buying a Mars bar icecream, boom
I got my brand new speedo cable in the mail. Now for the new sidelamp bulbs.
riding the length of my local asda carpark on a trolley with my feet off the ground, whilst allegedly putting it in the trolley park... the missus told me off, but had to agree that i managed it with style
Had the old VW Lupo 3L rolling roaded at a renonwed VAG TDI tuner to see what the old girl is capable of after 300,000 km (187k miles). Despite burning oil like there's no tomorrow, the old three pot 1.2 litre diesel kicks out a healthy 62.1 whp, not bad for an engine that is supposed to produce 61 hp at the crank. The only thing lagging behind is the torque curve, which is a bit peaky for a diesel. This is said to be caused by a clogged up diesel particle filter. Good news then, because the DPF is to be removed this Tuesday. Torque ahoy!

Getting thumbs up from a geezer in a 740 BMW when we both drove very steadily and gently up to 70mph along a piece of empty dual carriageway.
Although, I doubt he could see anything with the smoke screen I'm producing!!
