We all know that driving a 131 puts a permanent smile on our face and it certainly still seems to work for Simon. Here he is on the M4 today en route to the Rally day at Castle Combe   Grin

Unlike you lovely quiet 131 limousine Graham, "wispering" doesn't go with my car or Simon's car.  Grin

Looks like you had another great day out guys and that the Renault boys were impressed - I liked the comment about one Abarth being worth a field full of Evos!!  Wink

Blimey - I don't remember you taking that one Theo! Shocked

True tho - when all is going well, and I'm driving in convoy with my '131 friends' it does make me smile. Grin Grin

Yes, the Renault forum comments made me smile too. How right they are  Wink

I can't remember to be honest, but almost certain to be something that Theo was saying over the radio.  Cheesy We had a right laugh - once the water was made to stay in my cooling system! Shocked

Did you only have the water pump done as you should probably trade it in against one of Brens new sports.... did you see that one dry stored in a barn for donkey years  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Sid, I wouldn't be quite so happy with this particular car if the steering wheel was on the other side Wink Grin Grin Grin

Red, looks as though Mark and Bren have really happened across a once in a lifetime find with all of those 131s. I need to take time to have a proper look at their thread and congrate them. Cool

Got my eye on the black one myself. Wink
