edition 30 12k miles etc
Its been a while! So heres some catchup pics and some things I have bought.
2 more recent mileage pics
I also had all four wheels off to paint the rusty wheel hubs on the ED30
Used smoothrite which I have used before on the mr2 and it seems to stay put
Also took the opportunity to fully clay the inside of the wheels and apply lots of poorboys sealant :-)
Ferrari Challenge on the Wii screenshot. Jurys still out on the game itself !
Ipod Belkin Clear case = FAB , a chance pickup in dixons that is fantastic
Etymotic ER4P earphones = even more FAB , an upgrade from my previous ER6i ones
(note the right angled connector)

Goodwood Festival of Speed 2008
Absolutely amazing day at Goodwood Festival of Speed 2008
Saturday (which is supposed to be quieter)
Lots of miles cross country in the car but worth it.
Fav bit was the rally drivers sideways through molecomb , and a jag test driver who was even more sideways.
Lots of bike action too , those guys are heroes
Heres the picasa album , click to view all pics.
Check out the one of me on a Suzuki GSXR1000 :-)

Edition 30 first service
Yep , 9500 miles and the car chimes 'Service Now !'
Gilbert Lawtn in Manchester , top notch , done in 1.5 hrs while you wait.
Specified NOT to wash the car , and fill it with Longlife oil (even though Im on Time and Distance servicing)
In theory its a better spec oil so worth the extra.
£130 all in , which isnt bad
Also got a BMP paint touch up stick which was in stock.
Thoroughly recommend then so far.
