just picked up my car from lindop motorsport today after a rebuild . very impressed with the service i got and a big thanks to dwayne and everbody there , even got picked up at the train station and the car was washed and cleaned out , the cleanest ive ever seen it , just a matter of running it in at a boring no more than 4 thou revs till i can give it a proper work out , just to add it ran perfect on the way home ( after overheating and arriving at lindops on nice mr AA mans lorry 3 weeks ago )
and again a big thanks to dwayne for all the extra little bits and advice.
p.s. my dad says thanks for the offer of a job but its a bit far to commute :Giggle

Bah...cleaned as well eh...ReWorx take note you didn\'t clean mine :).

I\'m still running mine in...takes ages...car runs fine but it\'s shaking more than what it did but that just maybe the engine needs running in.

Anyway, I can\'t wait to drive it properly...its very frustrating :).

Tell me about it, i\'ve only just ran mine in....  Was the most frustrating 2 months ever!  Especially times when you have to pull out of a junction or round about in heavy traffic.  Only 59,000 miles before I have to do it all again! :D

Best thing to do when running in is to take a long route home... I live and work in Poole and went home via Chichester a few times!!

Run in was done pretty quickly ;)

Ahhh........*Penny drops*..........LOL

I dont enjoy driving for the sake of it anymore, there just too much traffic to enjoy it.  The roads were alot more enjoyable when I passed my test 15 years ago. :(
