Today I applied Rainex to all my windows and wing mirrors, check oil level etc, ready for ~600 mile trip on Sunday and Monday.

Gonna meet up with the BIALI boys and some nice fast cars (V8 M3 etc) for Sunday lunch, stay with friends overnight near Warwick and meet Monte in Nottingham on Monday when I collect my daughter from Nottingham. I hope the weather will be okay and no snow!  :scared:

As I have spent the day rolling on the space-saver, I've been playing 'miles per gallon challenge'. Managed 37.8 in urban conditions! Usually low to mid 20's!

My car looks like a proper spaz-mobile with the skinny wheel on though!  :rolleye:

This a definately my favorite game! with my densil I can reach over double that figure mind :)
can you ?
so you getting 75.6mpg then  :rolleye:

bought some oil as im sure the garage I bought my car from 2 months or so ago would have put the cheapest crap in, prob just topped it up with crap come to think of it so I went out and bought the best.
two 5 litre bottles
one for top ups and one for a complete change

bought from Halfords, expensive at £46 for 5 litres but needs must, so that was £92 just for oil  :confused:

also finally got my chrome switches delivered today from Hong Kong, look very cool and oem stamped

now got these and my mk6 mfsw to fit at some point but trying to source some tinted led European rear cluster lights first

Sent my golf off to VW HQ to be fixed as my local dealer made a massive hash of simple job. Back soon.....hopefully.
