    A bit of extra info for this that might help . If you are standing in the rain waiting to go across  you can't take umbrellas with you unless you can put them in a small bag. Toilets are limited either side of venue and won't let you out till tea break . They supply hot drinks at the break . If you want to do Extra Gear limited to 75 people look out for girls giving out blue wrist bands at tea break. At 13.30 they turned people away but once you are in the car park you will get in to show. They did supply cheap rain macs and bottled water in car park when delays occur. Be prepared to wait some people got there at 0900 don't know why and some chucked in the towel and left. Oh and no drinks inside hanger.

    I think the big dealer groups are more powerful than the distributors, yes. It's the only explanation for some of the crap.
     
    We have decent Ford, Toyota, BMW, Jag and Peugeot dealers locally. All small chains or family run. Coincidence? No - don't think so.
     
    All the garages that have lied or provided terrible service to me have been large groups. Lesson learned.

    Today I had a very busy day.
      I had put aside some time today to change my rear lights to new sequential smoked Valentis, figured a 15 minute job and so I sealed the gaskets with some silicone sealant the night before and got straight on it this morning. Had the old lights off in a jiffy, poured about half a pint of water out of the right hand side light, plugged it all back in, snipped the bodged wire that I ran to the reverse light in a panic last year to get he reverse light working and took a few photos ready to bask in my glory. Photos taken, I jumped back in the drivers seat to re-park the car. Click. Nothing. Oh sh*t.   Of course I knew what the problem was. That bodge over a year ago had come back to haunt me in style. Without wanting to bodge up my brand new lights there was only one thing for it, the new reverse light had to go on as well. I was prepared for this of course, I had acquired a jack and some axle stands, and Stu had kindly lent me his axle stands and a pair of ramps, all of which I was going to put to use sorting my front splitter out on Sunday with the help of a mate. But desperate times and a non-working car meant desperate measures, so I had a toastie and a diet coke and got back to work.   First time putting a car up on ramps - check. First time jacking up the car by the diff - check. First time using axle stands - check. First time crawling under a car suspended inches from my nose - check.   In for a penny in for a pound. I knew that the location of the reverse light was a PITA due to the efforts my mechanic mate put in to change it last time, so I was prepared for the eventuality that the exhaust would have to come off. 3 hours, lots of brute force and WD40 later I had the exhaust off, the new reverse light on and clipped and everything working like it was brand new again.   I would like to apologise to my neighbours, as I fired up the car to check the reverse light worked while the backbox was still on the floor of my driveway. It was epic, only slightly less loud than Ztox's exhaust normally. ^^   Finally the car was back in one piece, everything working, I just had time to drill a new rear license plate out and the work was done!   Before (old pic):     After:     Feelin' pretty chuffed to be honest!
