Road test done.
Well she is quick but a little flat at the top end. 140-160 MPH
A quick check with the Star reveals a dodgy air mass sensor. A new one will be here tomorrow.

Sadly I was too late to book a place for the GTG - I hope everybody has a great time. I do look forward to seeing the conversion on 26th.
Jack - any chance of letting Ollie get on with the work on my car and you taking me out for a run ?
