Hey Martin perhaps all it needs is a damn good thrashing which I know it'll get!

Great news.
How do you guys get on with the ferry?
On my recent "ring" trip my vxt seems to scrape when boarding or leaving the ferry I assume this normal if somewhat alarming?

The target for the BGW and splitter guys is 1min 53.
For the rest it's 2 min flat.

Good news and bad news. Good news is my car is fixed (the guy who did the work, did it until 9 last night, he even drove 80 miles o get a part for it, amazing service), then only wanted £70 for adding a new flexi joint to the car section, plus loads of other fixes on that part and complete new end piped for the back box. I gacve him a lot more.
Im have just finished a 4 hours stint putting it all back together (oh was that a joy).
The bad news is I now have to bring the vx, which would normally be a good thing but now the exhaust is quiet and can now hear the screaming supercharger belt even more, it sounds like I am constantly being followed by a pig being tortured!
See you later at Harwich folks. you'll here me coming.

I always have a spare belt, only problem is, went to fit it earlier and though before I could do them blindfold, have no idea how to do it now on the saab lump.
Heading off in an hours time.
See you all there.

Yes.
If external trigger wheel, then the sensor needs to come off first.

Think you have to take the crank pick up off or trigger wheel or something to do with that

yes and I have no idea how you get at that and hold the tensioner and fit the belt. Had already spent over 4 hours today under the bloody thing and just gave up. There were swear words involved.

Gets on my tits that the Mrs won't even sit in the vx or Noble as it restricts what I want to do.
She wants to go on holiday next week so it best be the best fcuking holiday I've ever had.
