I can't wait for it to need petrol, as that will be the first chance I get to drive it!!! LOL!! Pictures of the "toy" and happy pilot asap!

Well, after the car was at Rydale Newport for 6 hours

, it was eventually diagnosed as a faulty speedo "module"

A new one had to be ordered and will be fitted tomorrow (Wednesday) I will let you know how it has gone once collected!! Has anyone else had this problem, or is this an isolated incident??

It WASN'T the speedo module, it was a trapped wire that had shorted to earth

PDI, my ar*e
