Well.  

Its been a while since I updated this thread. 

I can't say much things of note have occured, it's generally just been a reliable comfortable car. 

Not long after my last post, I got a weird eBay boner and bid on some REAL DEAL OEM RUBBER MATS.

A really lovely older fella from the end of the road has had to give up his modern mercedes and he kindly knocked on my door to offer me some accessories that were no longer needed. 

 

Snow socks.

And clean juices.

I drove the sumbitch up to the Teesdale meet. A few Shitters had a go and made favourable remarks in relation to build quality and RAW POWER.

Here it is in the sun near a selection of far nicer cars.

I've seen those bogs before, they're outside my house.

After that is was mostly trips to the shops and back. Nothing interesting.

What with fucking Covid and fucking Brexit and all of that load of titwank, it had been a while since I'd seen THE SCOTCH, who are by far the best, so I stuck a couple of days holiday in and planned a route up the hill and back. 

 

ONE LAP OF THE NORTH.

It started to rain as I left the house to head north.

These next few are upside down, which is a forum tradition. It's something to do formatting and smartphones but I prefer to blame BORRIS JOHNSTONE.

Then back to upside down.

Good to catch you again chap, cheers for letting me sit in the Merc and make whispering noises just like a 2.4 V6. It is surprisingly lot bigger than the 75 on the inside.

An absolutely grand time was had talkin pash with the lads at chateaux de la @320touring, marred only by the appocolypse grade rain, floods, me blowing my undertray out hitting a dip full of standing water at 40mph, getting lost in the dark then having to be rescued by @davehedgehog31 in a eurovan.

Other than that, top night.

Cups of tea: 8

Chips: 8

Bants: 8

Toilets: 9

Shite: 10

Hey, you ate chips at Linlithgow Loch and didn't get attacked by a Swan! They can smell chips at 1/2 mile away and will then break your arm.

That's an upside down broken undertray.

Caught up with @Lacquer Peel and put the two EXCECUTIVE SALOONS nose to nose. The colour of the Volvo is pure delicious. Think I'd have him in a straight line race though. 

Great to see you man.

The last leg through Weardale dropping some bits off was the longest. 

Ran a child's bicycle, a pot of mushrooms and a 205 seat back down for the north east shitters, so the Merc is almost a van.

Can't believe I drove 10 hours ish, mostly on motorways, and managed an average speed of 38mph. The rain was fucking horrific on the way back mind. God help southern Scotland. All the fields were floating.

You could get three lurchers in there no bother.
