Cool

Took the Bear for a blast up to Sudbury in Suffolk via the Holmes & Bell Common Tunnels, and then came back home via the same 2 tunnels. It's the kid in me. But still love the sound this V8 makes.

Still undecided whether to sell this wee beastie.

Fitted the new ziton intercooler seals on the 75, surprised myself how easy job is what, although I was filthy! Not surprised it was hissing as one seal was missing and the other was split and hanging out, it has me bern leaking for a while as there was a stack of oil residue all around it.

I also fitted the stainless bolt set for the front bumper and lamps and gave her a wash!

Traced my oil loss to the cam seals and rocker gasket. Time to get a new set ordered from DMGRS I think!

Bob, instead of selling it, why don't you buy a couple of tunnels. You could make your own sound track record then.
