Uh-oh....

I recognise that Frontera

I don't, Sam never tells me what he buys. I bet he's had about 31 different cars since I last saw him a few weeks ago

 

Something about that set up reminds me of the words; long grass, Proton, sunken, driveway blocking...

 

[Bren]

Redesplendant in Barry Grant green....

[DeeJay]

Have you bought a trailer?

[hairnet]

So. Oop norf it is then. From Worcester. Sat Navy says M42 loop to M6. Didn't realise half a nuclear reactor was on move along same loop.

 

Arrive somewhere close to M6 northbound....someones managed to close two lanes northbound. Coupled with M5 roadworks and frictor valves from Windscale I've covered 48 miles to arrive at Kidderminster. 4 miles from my house after an hour and a quarter. Could have just gone that way, slice of cake, spot of tea and away, but no.

 

 

May not actually be a valve from a reactor*

 

[red5]

I recognise that Frontera

You sure? Look closely...

[red5]

So, with renewed zest and vigour I set off again. From the town next to mine. After a tour of the M5 M6.

 

 

 

Oh...

[Ghosty]

Where in England are you that's that light at 2am?!

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

I think it's a side effect of that eclipse in America. The Moon is in the wrong place, so it's not blocking the sun for us tonight.

To continue -

 

obviously the best way to Manchester is via Shrewsbury, Wrecsam and Chester.

 

So I did.Whilst silently planing the downfall of the Highways Agency. I formulated a plan to reduce them and the road network to chaos and anarchy with rage inducing frustration. Then put it into plan 20 years ago.

 

 

 

 

 

Insert Bridgnorth, Cressage, Cross Houses here.

 

A5 was win. Then across the border into Wales. And oop norf.

 

 

 

Chester bound !

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[red5]

Definitely not at the races today...oh,wait...

 

 

 

Billy lives here? A bit too humble?

 

 

 

S'nice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[red5]

Some more M and A road shenanigans for a while. Not including missing M6 turn honest.

 

Then arrive at Chez Hairnet at 5-5.50 pm as planned.

 

 

 

Not.

 

 

 

It was dark. I was blocking street and far too close to Manure's ground.

 

So, much pushage, slight strappage and time for a drop of tea and a slice of cake. Which was lovely hairnet et al 

 

 

So, missing something.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[red5]

 

 

 

 

 

There we go.

 

So, it's late, I'm miles away from home, cold, wet but........my second Proton. Of win.

 

1.3 GL 4dr Mpi. In GE  red (ish) Yay.

 

Which doesn't start now, has a mostly flat battery and leaks brake fluid from rear. What's not to love.

 

It's outside the house now, stil on trailer. Off to work shortly, will unload and moar pics etc etc. And make stuff combust internally. Hopefully.

 

Apologies for poor/lack of content so far chaps. Or indeed for too much. 

 

 

 

Thanks again for the offers of storage initially, and from hairnet for looking after it for me.

 

Ps, Fronterrors are ace. 2.8's more so than anything else.

[Lord Sterling]

Eh? I thought the Proton was the silver bodykitted job you were interested in.

 

Well done. I know how you feel being far away from home, cold and wet. Been there, done that, still doing it.

[red5]

Still am. Puma rather than Lynx for choice but either will do.

 

Or a Panache 

 

 

 

 

See that? I did that. And all it's mates, oooer.

[Matt]

Eh? I thought the Proton was the silver bodykitted job you were interested in.

 

Not available yet and clearly couldn't wait to have another!

[red5]

Wanted.

 

Mpi distributor. Probably.

[red5]

Definitely. Any know if a later one from the magma fits?

Frontera doppleganger!

 

Love it.

[Steve79]

Might be worth looking here if replacement distributor is required

This guy will definitely have the right part. He's a Proton breaker and managed to get me 4x new springs for my aeroback from malaysia when no-one else could source them. 

[red5]

4g13p in this case.
