The saga's of Ethel

[jimmyt]

There's plenty of life left on mine, and with covering well under 1000 miles a year they might out live me

[Ade]

I only done 2,400 miles last year. The year before it was only 1,300.
At least the mini only had 3 miles on the clock when I bought it back in 2000

Ethels around about 5k now, so thats 4.5 k in 18 months. It will reuce now i've got the mcs auto

just bought a '' dis-car-nect' to see if this helps matters .

wen't on a short Jaunt to Dyrham Park near Bath yesterday, and got a little scraped on the speed bump on the way out . I'm wondering if i need to get the adjustable shocks raised up a bit, looking at the pictures of my old w reg s-works the car sta higher on the adjustable shocks.

[simeds]

gave in yesterday and bought 'another' battery. I have learnt my lesson about not driving regularly and leaving the battery connected and (b) leaving the lights on

The Janspeed on mine just fell off one day. Replaced with a standard exhaust. Miss the note.

running nice, broken the 6k barrier now !. Replaced the vented fuel cap with a non vented one and I feel like she runs a bit better ( although it could be a placebo effect )
