And who can forget the "cannon ball run" a few of us did to get to the ferry from that pizza place :ninja: :D


Well at least you didn't realise halfway to wherever we were going on the way back that you left your clothes in the hotel and had to turn around and go back, find the hotel with no map, get your wallet stuck under the seat after a toll both and have to ask the cleaner at the hotel to slide her slender fingers under to get it out, then find your way to the ferry still without a map, then being refused entry because your passenger wasn't on the booking so had to go to the office to get him added and being one of the last cars on the ferry. And we didn't even get any pizza.

Meh all this talk is proving very tempting. Considering, against my better judgement, leaving the Saab 9000 Track team and tracking the VX instead... This trip does sound fantastic. Someone persuade me that is not the case, and the VXT should stay away from Le Mans please. G

it's rubbish, we have no fun at all, we are all in bed by 10pm. Being in a convoy through france with 20 other vx's isn't at all one of the most fun things i've done. You'd hate it G.

The fix is likely to be free. Jack up car, remove nearside rear wheel and arch liner and check/clean/reseat the two connectors that are attached to the expansion tank bracket. Search on here for the loom of doom.

Cheers techieboy, I was reading into that last night. There seems to be a bit of corrosion around that area. Will have a go today :-)
