Eyersey1234 Posted September 4, 2021 Author Share Posted September 4, 2021 Eccles seems to be averaging about 47mpg with a mix of town and dual carriageway driving, not too bad. He has done 280 miles on about half a tank of diesel Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyersey1234 Posted September 5, 2021 Author Share Posted September 5, 2021 Annoyed with myself as I misjudged a gap at work earlier on and caught the front bumper on an old bus wheel putting a scrape on the bottom of it, so I have ordered some touch in paint to repair it Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyersey1234 Posted September 5, 2021 Author Share Posted September 5, 2021 Whilst on taxi duty tonight picking up my stepdaughter after I finished work I had a play around with the radio getting the stations tuned in that I wanted. I never realised how many DAB stations there are. Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyersey1234 Posted September 8, 2021 Author Share Posted September 8, 2021 Nothing to do with Eccles at all but for a laugh one of my workmates and I have just been speccing a top of the range 7 seat Genesis G80 online, Genesis being the luxury brand of Hyundai. It came in at over £65000! 😮 £65k for a Hyundai!! Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyersey1234 Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 Had a nice weekend in Bedfordshire this last weekend, Eccles did around 500 miles in 3 days though I forgot to make a note of the mileage before we left so I'm unsure exactly how many. We went to a couple of farm places, The Shuttleworth Collection and Gardens and finished at Blenheim Palace yesterday. Dan302 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyersey1234 Posted October 3, 2021 Author Share Posted October 3, 2021 Since our trip away at the weekend Eccles had developed an annoying squeak and last night I finally figured out what it was, the passenger sun visor hadn't been clipped back in properly and as the car went over a bump the visor moved.

Eyersey1234 Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 As mentioned on the LEJOG Montego thread I am considering doing LEJOG in a car that costs less than the train fare for my 40th in 2027. The nearest stations are Penzance and Wick. Dan302 and LightBulbFun 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
