My Tranny

[Terry]

Dunno, I got them this morning & haven't used the van today, used the car (which also had a pair fitted today) but it was raining too hard to have the windows open anyway.Had to go to Canary Wharf and the traffic was NOT fast moving

[Terry]

Well used the van today, but still dunno if the 'wind deflecters' are any good, cant remember how bad the wind 'intrusion' was before, so they are a bit like anti-elephant pills. I guess there is less buffeting when the window is fully open, but could be wishfull thinking
Also as you can read elsewhere, ordered a Bluefin today, I am collecting (trailering) a car from Preston tomorrow so won't get it fitted / programmed ? till Thursday. Probably won't need the van again till next week, can use the car for Friday & Saturdays run to Sunderland & back !

[Terry]

After a bit of faffing around got the Bluefin in and working this afternoon.
Couldn't give a flat out test on the way home- too much traffic, but the acceleration is much improved the low speed pick-up is also vastly better and the throttle pedal seems more sensitive (but that may be wishfull thinking, after all its only a few switches !) Definitely a vast improvement but expensive .....(maybe thats me being tight fisted), hopefully once I get back to 'normal' driving the improved fuel consumption will show.

Went to Brum, the NEC, the slow way (past a tanker that had shunted !), Left with the intention of a steady run down the M40, finished as a sprint down the A41 thru Aylesbury e.t.c but gave the Bluefin a bit of a raggin , and am impressed. Acceleration from the 60/70 mark the cars used to leave me now I stay with them ! , top speed appears unchanged at about 95, but gets there (apparently) a lot quicker, pull from low speed/high gear was good, but now is impressive !, All in all well pleased
lotta money..... but its only money

hey there, like the scorpio seats, easy to fit?

[Terry]

Thought I'd bring this thread up to date !
My latest accessory....................with postage about £55.00, off the Bay of E



You can tell by the wires hanging underneath that its not connected yet
(hopefully getting that done next week) will fit the 'drain' tube then too,

I just looked at the top of these two pics, and read the bit about wires, before looking at the bottom picture. I thought "bloody hell, he's even got an electric shithouse in his van!"

Nice van, I can't get most of the pictures, just a picture of a skinny bird with some scribble on her shoulder and a dog wearing a pink scarf.

Lucky you.............. getting a skinny bird. When I right click & click show picture I get a square with a red x in it .. again
I think as the posts get past a certain age/time the pictures get archived/ binned to preserve 'band width' ?, but I am no computer whiz.

No, it's because they have been deleted from photobucket by who ever posted them. None of the pictures here are hosted by this site.

That'll be me then.
Sorry, I didn't realise that's how it worked.......... wondered why some older ones wrere still there & newer ones gone
So what about the skinny bird then ? Wheres she from ?
