Homer Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Bit of a long shot, but is any passing by the Reading area in the next few weeks going to Hastings area (specifically St Leonards on Sea)? It's mainly a favour for ADL Mark; he bought a cabin carpet from Robsheffield which I picked up from Santa pod to bring it a little closer to him.. problem is he's not had chance to pick it up and I now need to get it out the way. Please can someone help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADL Mark Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Oh Ricky, you would be a star if you could do this for me. Homer, I'm so sorry this hasn't been picked up yet It's just been one thing after another. I've only this week got a wheel to replace the one on the Mondeo that was buckled from the pot-hole but still can't drive it as my ankle is still in plaster And today, I was officially made redundant, what a few weeks it's been!

Homer Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 Rick, thanks very much for the PM's mate, you're a legend! Mark, don't worry about it mate, you've had a really bad run of luck lately so thought it worth seeing if anyone else could help here. Sure enough, it came I never cease to be surprised how much people here will help each other out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I'm going to Wheels in Motion tomorrow, and that's in Chesham, Bucks. Is that near enough, as I'll be coming from Eastbourne? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADL Mark Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I'd like to hear how you get on Andrew, as I want to take the Supra up there once I'm secure in a job again. I hear good things. Ermm, whoever it would be easiest to pick it up, I really don't mind? I can get to Eastbourne relatively easy, or if Rick is coming this way anyway and doesn't mind dropping it in then that would be great?

I don't know if you know this, but Garfy very kindly fitted my new suspension last week, and after driving his car I thought it felt great, and he had his set up by WiM, so I thought I'd get mine all calibrated by them too. I really don't mind making a detour, if I'm given a postcode etc, then I can pop in on way home, and drop it off over weekend, if you like.

ADL Mark Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Ok Andrew, if you speak to Darryl then he'll be able to give you his postcode? I think I'll be in Eastbourne most of the weekend, as I'm helping (read supervising) some mates rebuild an engine. I'll drop you my number as I've no idea of the road names of where they live!

ADL Mark Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 And no, I didn't know Garfy had been. I'll have to give him a shout! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem. Just let me know where you're going to be and I'll pop along. And no, I didn't know Garfy had been. I'll have to give him a shout! He's a canny one that Garfy, isn't he?! And, yes, his car feels so planted and corners very confidently too, which is what I want too. My new suspension feels 100% better even now, so I hope they can tweak it a bit to suit my driving style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 Mark, your carpet is now on route Thanks to Andrew for picking this up, one less item to get in the way! Nice to finally meet you too Also thanks Ricky for the offer as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Finally, I am home! As always driving the Supra is always a pleasure, but after a 300mile round trip, I'm really looking forward to that Chinese I mentioned! Some parts of that journey were horrible, but overall what a grand day out that was. The car feels brilliant now. I have complete confidence in WiM's setup, and feel that the tyres and handling overall are at their optimum too. Mark - I'll text you tomorrow morning, and we can arrange a time to meet up.
