Today I took my LY plastic toy to MBR for service, healthcheck for the winter and the start of the"journey"  ..not sure where we will end up but somewhere yonder..

 

They surpassed and exceeeded my expectations having first met him whilst down at Brands H with Mike(cliffie) and watched him at work, what a great place, and a great group of people that fills you with confidence when  to leaving the treasured possesion..even Mrs H, who came along for the ride was impressed, and it takes alot for her to say that, even if Matt did notice the colour of the car goes with her hair...flattery will get you no where  :)

Stop bigging him up people, otherwise his very reasonable prices will rise :huh:

 

I'll be taking my new toy down to him for a once over before it gets taken to pieces as well I think.

Mines on there too although it must have been taken during the 'nitron fiasco' as she looks very high at the front. And definitely before my mate stuck her in a hedge :(

1hr 30 for me, half on the A14, for some reason that road is the most boring road I've ever been on.
