It's a seriously awesome plane. I spilled my tea when it flew over. Certainly the last year it will fly at Shoreham airshow

Definitely worth doing I'd say, and as above the minispares own 7.5" coopers calipers and discs are excellent value.

Astra interior is now very clean, and smells like a new car, or so the packaging on the new air freshener would lead me to believe. Also give the car a good shower. lol.

I carry one in the mini just in case. Had my 3 week old company car catch on fire once on the m6 and it's not fun!

Can't fault Lancaster for their quote this year - £150.00 fully comp classic insurance, £100 excess with an agreed valuation. Pretty happy with that!

Ask Sean if he hasn't got a set of wheel nuts for you that will work?
