:wave

That was me :D Sadly the "standard" rad had split and only just got us there, luckily AA man managed to gam it up enough with some putty to get us to tootle home at 60 all the way, only stopped once to top up so that was good.

It is pretty standard, just backbox, and soon to be new rad... Plus Ohlins suspension and have some RZ BBS wheels to get some track rubber on too ;)

I was looking forward to a blat down the little roads but sadly was getting overtaken by camper vans LOL!

It would be an excellent place to meet up, such a lovely location! Got some piccies of the ol\' goat :D

But at least I got home and can now get a N-Flow rad without needing to make any kind of justification, and Cheddar george was the last thing on the list while we were down that way, so not bad all in all.

Next time we\'re down that way I\'ll give you\'ll a shout!

Ouchies! That does sound bad, I\'d much rather a blown rad than a blown engine ;)

If you do meet up get some piccies up, would be great to see some nice cars in such a great setting!
