Thank you David.... :roll: :lol:

The car was driven onto the trailer and the whole shooting match is now sitting outside a hotel in Wales. So....fingers crossed that is will all work in the morrow.

Fair to say that Jeffs car was impressive today... though apparently, his dip stick isn't :lol:

There was some confusion by others (and later by me) how much oil to put in....the engine decided it had more than enough, thanks very much. Apart from that it all seemed to work.

I think the main lesson from the day is that Jeff has no idea how to use his dipstick but my wife was happy to help him out with various suggestions :o

She also announced half way along the M4 on the way home that she wished she had gone out in his car again....I am sure it was something to do with the compressor vibrating through the passenger seat :?
