Hants virtual meeting!

[Techyd]

I should be good for Wednesday 15th, same venue works for me.

[Simon Gooding]

Yep, I think the 15th is OK with me too.

Thank you for the offer Kevin, I have messaged you directly. Hope to see you all soon.

[KennyN]

15th is good for me.  I look forward to seeing everyone there. 

[Nelly]

15th and same place good for me too.  I am seeing Pete on Saturday so will give him the heads up 😀.

I now have a poorly Evora, it is running rough and I only noticed on the way home, but have noticed it before but its doing it more now.  Did anyone notice it sounding funny when I arrived or left last week?   All being well I will bring the Esprit!

 

 

[pbharcourt]

I'll try and bring a chair that doesn't do the comedy collapse next time 😂

[peteyg]

Pants! 15th no good. Wife is working so need to be on Dad duty. Enjoy!

It sounded fine when you fired it up when we were leaving and when I was behind you for a bit all was well.  If it hasn't been used much recently, could the fuel be a bit stale?  That often doesn't become an issue until the warm-up phase has passed and you start to push the revs a bit.

[Nelly]

Thanks @KennyN, fuel is only a matter of weeks old, filled the car up in May,

I noticed a problem on a post lockdown run but it seemed to sort itself out and assumed it was where it had been sat, so didn't pay it much thought until last week.

The car goes in for a service next week thankfully, so good timing in one way and it has now got the engine light on so assume there will be an error code to check.  Its doing it on start up tickover, so affecting whatever temperature the car is at.

 

[KennyN]

No problem @Nelly, hopefully it's a cheap fix!

[ADF]

Sorry to hear that Neil, I didn't notice anything unusual when you started up and left, however wasn't paying particular attention.  Hopefully the code will lead to a fix that's simple and cheap. I hope the esprit master cylinder replacements going Ok it would be great to see that out.

Having consulted my busy schedule I may just be able to squeeze it in, hopefully the Elise will be in one piece, just changed the lwr engine stay (bit of a fuck up from ordering bits on ebay at 3 in the morning-compounded by my decision to do things the hard/stupid way actually turned out ok as I'd rather be in the garage welding than watching TV anyway) all fitted now only to then notice the disintegrating OE gear cable bush, hunted high and low in the garage for another bit of material to make one to match the other one I had made before but had nothing so I'll now have to wait another week or so for the post.  Probably my over enthusiastic gear changes.

[Simon Gooding]

Chaps, just checking in that we are good to go for tomorrow evening? Meeting at the same place as last time, at the cricket pitch on the Fordingbridge road, just outside Brook?

[Kevin Wheeler]

I will be there!

Hopefully no comedy chair - will leave that to Paul

[ADF]

I'm good to go, Weather looks fine for tomorrow (light cloud and gentle breeze 18deg).

[KennyN]

I'll see you there!

[pbharcourt]

I will be there with the disco Elite, no Landy yet as DVLA are taking forever to send the reg docs back☹️

[Techyd]

I've had some work commitments come up this week, so I can't make it I'm afraid 😥

[peteyg]

Have fun. Hope you miss me!

[pbharcourt]
