Car still parked where I left it after Winton but at least the now (hopefully) repaired slave cynlinder is back on and half bled.

Well it's spent the majority of the last month on stands waiting for me to fix the clutch slave cylinder.  But it's hopefully close to being back on the road.

It's back on the road and now fitted with a kiddy seat in the front.  My daughter has a great time telling me off for driving to fast (when going like a nana) and that it's to loud!

Guess there's not much call for me to lurk these forums anymore, although I probably will.
One day I'll get another Adub. One day...

Ahhhhh nine months cold turkey without the doorstop, still miss it when I find a good road (of which there are a LOT and more sensible speed limits here too)
 
England is fun, the job has some quite awesome aspects, have seen some jaw droppingly cool bits of prototype stuff that will remain confidential for at least a few more years.  Driven the odd supercar and of course spend a lot of my time in Lotii which I'm growing to really like apart from how damn hard they are to get in and out of!  Diving into 2GR and 2ZR engines feels kinda familiar.
 
Quite a few SW20s in the carpark and I've chatted to some owners, one guy makes regular trips to the Nurburging.  A number of Spyders too but Adubs are rarer than rocking horse ****.
 
The flying doorstop is now registered up in Sydney so some of you may come across it on occasion.
 
Miss the car, miss the club, miss the people but can't regret making the move, life's an adventure!
