I enjoyed driving round continental europe so much i decided to pop back to the south of France for some more Cheese and wine. 2500 miles, 48mpg average, caught by one speed camera... hoping not to hear anything :lol:

French love there wind turbines.. thought i would get a pic with one.. but i lack photo ability. Those things are utterly massive, you dont realise when you see them in the distance.

This is the Millau viaduct in the background, drove over it earlier in the week, not as impressive as i had thought.

On 22nd septemper Rebel motorsport held our first MSA approved Autosolo event. Essentially a timed event around a set course of cones. No Helmets, overalls or competition license required. Amazingly fun day, really tests your car in a way you never get to on the road or a regular circuit. So anyway here are some pics and vids. There are more on the Rebel website.

Great day, bargain money, highly recommend it.

Quick vid of me giving it some.

What did you use to refurb your calipers?

Brake cleaner, scotchbrite, masking tape, news paper, hammerite hi temp red rattle can, seat cupra decal from ebay.

Really pleased with the decal, thought they would peel off etc. Never did get round to doing the other caliper though :lol:

I couldnt be arsed to take the caliper off, so just masked it up really well.
