Its just down the road from Aston Martin's old factory/current flagship dealer, so an inordinate number of flash cars are driving past.
I'm tempted to go and try it now. I'll tell it the man's coming first of course, to instil some fear.

Home from work, just settling down to watch the start of the 24 Le Mans. Some changes may bring some interesting racing.
It’s on Quest for anyone interested, or Eurosport.

Supposed to be at my Nephews house warming BBQ at 3 o'clock, but my wife and daughter are having a wardrobe crisis!

I had an early dinner, spicy pizza, then chocolate yoghurt and fruit, then fell asleep trying to watch a film.
The parcel man woke me up so now I'm having a pint of brown ale to make me sleepy again.

Drinking Triumph shit coffee. Stopped at the dealers on my way home and said "listen to this", started it up and they said "oh yeah. Do you want to leave it with us?" I said "not really because I have to get my luggage home. It's booked in for tomorrow.

Re: A right now thread
It only rattles until it adjusts - I noticed it did it more when I started it hot so I got it as hot as I could on the way to the dealer. It keeps dribbling water too - did it again when I was on top of a mountain enjoying the peace on Sunday - I heard it - just like you would any animal - I turned to look and there it is - having a pee. I then topped it up with 125ml of what I thought was spring water but when I checked it was summer fruit flavoured - artificial sweaters - it will smell nice when Triumph next check it. That was the first time I'd topped it up since they had it last.Bigyin wrote: ↑Mon Aug 23, 2021 5:34 pmYou did well to get to the dealers with all that rattling it was makingTrinity765 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 23, 2021 1:37 pm Drinking Triumph shit coffee.

It's being replaced under the warranty that ran out in Feb this year. They are waving the charge for the T100 until Tuesday..........I've got a free T100 for a sunny bank holiday weekend
