I'll be there Darren. Anyone else coming?

The green V8 was mine, one of the Esprit's had an accident on the way to Stow so I parked up and jumped into my dad's TT to go and help. Did the 3 of you enjoy the breakfast? It's a great location to have a meet. Hopefully we can do it again soon.

I removed the exhaust then split the gearbox from the engine and dropped the gearbox out from the bottom at the back of the car - plenty of room. Then craned the engine out separately. I also had to replace the ims bearings too, I think the belts were over tightened in the past and the rear bearing failed completely - I was extremely lucky to catch it in time! Good luck with the project, I did most of the work on my own too, at least you'll know it's all done correctly.

Good effort, hopefully see you guys at next weeks breakfast run.

I'm in. 5 Palmergeddon

What he said ^^^ Great day, great roads and it didn't rain the whole time. Thanks Dave and Darren for organising the trip and thank you Bibs for the tea and cake :-)

What time and where are we meeting tomorrow Darren?

I'm happy to grab a quick coffee on the M40 services with you Trev if you want to meet up a bit earlier?

The 15th is the only date I have available in September and I am away in early October.

I'm going, but I'll be parked up with the PistonHeads lot. Anyone meeting up on the A34?

Banbury sounds very good to me :-)

28th July is a good day for me, I'll put it in my diary before the wife decides to something wifey on that day like shopping or visiting the in-laws.

On it like a car bonnet! Here's a link to a video I made of our trip guys, enjoy: http://videobam.com/XbwXI

No can do I'm afraid, I need to work on Sunday.
