My Camaro will be 1 year old (in my possesion) next week and after moving it backwards and forwards in the garage, it's done about 8 metres in 1 year. i did work out that a full tank of fuel will cost £82.56 :cry:

So is it coming out this year?? If you don't get it out soon, a tank of fuel will cost you £182.00 :lol:

cheers....Nige

Hi

Just done some sums, a minimum of 2500 miles (although speedo reads in Kms) possibly up to 5000 miles.

Think that should help the Chancellor out a bit!

Come on Mark, pull your finger out :lol: you have any joy with those bits??

LOL, only just noticed this :)

Not too much luck, but got to hunt down a 168 tooth flywheel, and bellhousing/clutch and pedal assembly. Possible gearbox when I get to Swap meet :)

Ye well petrols has gone up 5p since that post, plus apparently there is another 5p going on in the next 2 monhts, plus the yearly 5 year old maths club, i mean budget, will add another 2p to that. think i may push it as it is down to the local petrols station and fill it up. I may have to cellotape shut the doors as the strikers arent in yet :)

Hopefully out soon, (never said that before!) in fact will update the project page now...

Well I had mine out for the first proper long runs since I bought it.

New tyres all round and now - no more tramlining

Mileage is impressive at 28mpg - for a Zee - on a long run each way. The around and about bit in the middle of the weekend still gave me 25mpg, so well pleased.

All looking good for the run through France - North to South and and back again - with a week around the Provence-Alpes-Cote D'Azur area to catch some rays.

:D :D :D
