I can believe two hours myself. The sh!t fit fitters sh#g cars out in about 10 minutes but never bother to check the steering wheel is aligned.

It is a long drawn out process to get the steering wheel straight and the front wheel alignment correct at the same time...

I have the same on mine. Derek Warwick Honda have said that I need to book it in and they will check it. They take the car to a specialist firm so that's cool by me.
But my baby has just been washed and polished and is now uner wraps in my garage probably until next year.

Sods law was operating for me. A great Autum day, and the only way I experience it was from the cab of an AA flatbad with the S2000 on the back.

So often I drive past other convertables which have their hoods up. Yesterday, I saw a Boxster and E46 M3 Convertable, both hood down.



Enjoy the weather while you can guys and gals

Ah.. what a lovely day cruising to brighton....

A nice drive down the M40, but missed the M25 turn off
Ended up on the A40, North circular and then stuck on the south circular... !
It was cool though because I journeyed through all my old haunts and places of work.
Putney, Clapham, Brixton, Balham...... ahhh hood down and bla$ting music at'cha.
The mist cleared up around 10 o'clock and everyone was heading south to brighton....... I love it down here by the sea !!
