@ 35.7MPG around town, It should last me a while.

My ZTT 400 dreams about anything more than 26mpg.

No more rattles or pop off door cards now

Get a good wax on Banana before the big trip, the roads look like the dead sea up here.

Adjusted the hanging brackets and replaced the squishy rubbers on the exhaust to eliminate the vibration/knock on heavy pulling and reversing. Soooooo quiet now!

Fixed the bulb warning light on the dashboard. Turns out a bulb had come loose and wasn't making a decent connection.

Took Kim up the motorway to Tony Banks for a new stainless steel cat back section plus back box. Quiet drive back

New rear brakes on Maurice

still waiting for some bits so replaced all the rusty cross headed screws and fixings across the front of the bumper, someone had obviously tried to remove them before realising you don't need to. Drilled all the heads off and fitted new stainless steel screws and washers, with a dab of copper grease for good measure. Will leave loose so I can make sure everything lines up when I put the bumper back on.
