Re: Spotted today.
Very tidy '52 MM series in Northallerton at lunchtime today, MRW registration. Not one I've seen around these parts before. Possibly in town for this Sundays classic car show in the High Street

Re: Currently drinking.....
Probably very nice but the brand name has unpleasant connotations.

Re: tyres
They do the Michelin X - I had 7 years and 50000 off a set. They weren't over £100 back then though.

Re: Exhaust raspberries
A shorter tailpipe farts less. I once fitted a full new system and the tailpipe projected past the bumper. To prevent damage from reversing I had the angle grinder out and lobbed a good 6 inches off, definite difference.

OK perhaps a kneejerk reaction....but once the technology is there I am sure the next step is control and monitoring. Look at the burgeoning forests of cash... I mean speed cameras.

Re: Currently drinking.....
We took some friends to Mount St Bernard Abbey yesterday and bought a couple of bottles of their Trappist ale to try. The monks have given up on dairy farming and have revived their brewing tradition. Beautifully made and presented but you almost need a spoon to get it out of the bottle! Too strong...

MY 2002 Focus is still on its original exhaust! If it ever fails MoT badly it'll make a great donor car as it has the 2.0 Zetec with low miles and FSH
