Heh, if I got my 480 tuned by DBS, by the time it's done I'd be old enough to insure it properly! ;)

drinking john you never. I will get some crappy student beer just for you :lol:

Our fleet of 480's will also be there all four of them.

The question is who's car will break this time. Fnord, me and rpruen are all out of the game as we have all already broken at a meet therefore we will leave it up to someone else this time

MARTIN think has the best odds unless he brings his car to Brum home for mentally disturbed 480's.

Mine hasn't broken down at all...

Oh, yes she has, _someone_ didn't tighten up the jubilee clip on the aux water pump so it stranded me on the way to work the first day i took her with the turbo engine, and i had to get a vauxhall owning mat eto come rescue me with a screwdriver and a watering can! I still get ribbed about that!

Yep sounds a good idea, not the breaking down but a meet, any idea where abouts in the midlands?
