Seems to be a lot more in the Bournemouth area than I realised too.
Where abouts are you Bournemouth guys based?

Were in Ensbury Park

Its certainly gonna be good to meet up with you guys

I'm in Moordown, my kids go to Hill View School so I drive past your 2 quite regularly. There's at least 2 more very close by too. Another in Moordown and one in Winton.

So who owns the blue Caravelle/microbus Syncro on a trailer that I saw parked in Moordown then?
& The big orange syncro that goes up Alder Rd every morning?

[HarryMann]

You'll have 3 convoys at this rate...

The Salisbury lanes are really easy but can be quite interesting to drive because of the army presence in the area.

Yup, they're only on holiday in August, so make sure your Chobham armour is fully fitted and up to snuff and you earplugs are in !

Oh, did I not mention the mandatory white flags, flying from everyone's CB aerial

I missed this - so you know where Kings Road, New Haw is then. You're not one of SPM Motorworks are you?

[Fin]

Wish I had a syncro
I live in Wiltshire, used to love taking the old Nissan up onto the plain for a bundle through the tank troughs great fun.
Once got pounced upon by 10 or so squadies with huuuuge guns pointed our way, but we were within spitting distance of the old Village up there

The blue one belongs to a guy from London who bought it down for me to weld the side window frames in then promptly left it at the end of my road for 4 days. It's gone now.

Not seen the orange one...

[torchy]

Tilshead good, How many are going now? Looks like it's very popular

[Fin]

Might have to pop up and say hi, check out some syncros

[jester1467]

The panel van that we use as the off roader has given me a headache today.

Changing the three way elbow on the exhaust this morning only to find the 1&3 manifold pipe has split at the elbow flange. Typically the one part of the system that is syncro specific.
Thanks to Mike and Aidan for putting me on track to solve the problem.
Plan is to weld the exhaust up till I can get hold of a stainless 1&3 pipe, Brickwerks say an 8 week delivery on the web site so need to get a temp fix done till then.

That means will be okay for february

If anyone has a secondhand 1&3 pipe that would be a better temporary fix please shout.
