Many thanks Russ and the weather on Sunday was perfect, with no rain, not too much wind and even a little sunshine without being too hot. The Saturday afternoon was also dry although overcast but unfortunately very few cars turned up! With regards, Matthew T.

Would have been a different story If I had driven up to Wetherby..would have lost all me LHM! :cry: :lol:
Not from a leak off pipe, you wouldn't, it just seems a lot as it's the accumulated fluid in the pipe.

Just put the proper clip on, nothing else will seal properly. It's easy if you use pliers and a small screwdriver shaft, of a pair of pincers.

This was my first trip to the Wetherby rally and I'm pleased I made it, the sun shone all afternoon, there were loads of various cars there, but the best bit was meeting old friends and new ones. I'd especially like to say how nice it was to meet Mark and Jacqui, who brought me some parts and are very nice people to meet.

I really love Jacqui's Olympic blue car and Marks Memphis blue (EMQ) one is a very rare and nice colour.

I've got some pics, but was too tired to post them up yesterday. In no particular order.

Ray in my Cobalt car after Chris finally gave it back. We wondered where He'd got to then had a report he was seen at Scotch Corner... ;)

Apparently someone actually went on a 50 mile test drive on Saturday... :D

Good to see you yesterday Will and also to see your photos and I remember you snapping off as we set off on a test drive! Is Chris going to buy the Cobalt car that is the question!! Regards, Matthew T.

At present it's not for sale, it's a great car to drive and I love driving it.

:lol: I was joking Will. although it did chuck out enough to upset the ride. I just cannot get that clip on. But it seems to be fine now.

Anyway...excellent pics there Will. I'm very impressed with Eddies gold XM. He is turning that around a treat.
And Jacqui's Olympic blue XM is such a nice colour.
