Great day to be out and about. I managed a nice run round the coast today too. Nice hour or so washing and fettling too, feels like Spring at last! Stopped off at a local old ruin, needs a bit of work but rumour has it it's going to be a posh hotel :thumbright:

Badass dave. Great photography. I saw a blue oldsmobile today on the A3 if that was anyone on here.

My starter motor was acting up today but good to see people getting their cars out again.

What's the issue with the starter James? They sometimes stick if the car hasn't been started for a while (get the hammer out!). Quite a few on here (me included)have changed to hi torque mini starters :thumbright:

It had been sitting a while Steve. We thought it was a battery issue so it sat even longer while we decided what to do and were investigating.

You will get there James. Fully charged battery is always a good start and I would try bridging the terminals on the starter relay just to rule that out. A few small things to check and I'm sure you will be up and running. Sorry, a bit off subject.

I've spent the last two days just going over the underside of my car as its very dry and warm (surprisingly). Fresh coat of underseal etc and just couldn't resist a late afternoon ride out. I love my car and if money was no object I would happily use her as my daily driver.

Cheers Steve :thumbright:
