Yes I know but have now dropped out as I prefer to support my local meet. Not only that I am expected to turn up as I am the resident photographer and it is The Flying Banana's turn to go to a meet.

Are they not all different? I'll have mine with me if you want to try.

I dont know just how different they are to be honest.

Its best not to try yours, after posting this i i took it to my MGR garage and they tried with one from a set of rover ones (about 24 in the set) and he couldnt budge it either. we can go as far as saying that his broke too.

so not wise to try another unless it is surplus to requirements. i dont want to rish breaking another.

im sure the nana is lovely but soo wanted to see a 260 there, hope one comes.

If a black Suzuki TL1000 turns up it'll be me, She needs a run as I have mayo in the filler cap from all the short journeys she's done to work so she needs a longish blast to get rid of it....

Other half permitting of course:confused: will only stop for a minute as dinner will be ready for 2ish!!

Nice to meet some of you today,thanks to Lewis for fitting my chrome strip,and apologies for making some of you weep as my wife drove off with the handbrake on!What with that,and me stalling the Noble as I tried to avoid a pothole in the car park,it would be fair to say we've both made better exits!
And GCJ, you really should change your sign in, to MINTER !

Was a great day, was amazed at the turnout. Its good to put faces to names, thanks to lewis for testing my VIS motors although the outcome wasnt great.

The best part of the day though..... SWMBO actually gave the 260 her approval.... if we can find a tourer.....doh!
