Karl,

I've had an Atom for 13 years and I've waited for the crunch every time I've had to reverse.

So yes.

That’ll be your post-sh1t-in-a-farmer's-field-lightheadedness.

Official club advice: if Nick needs a poo, don't park near him.
First Atomised 2001.
Atom (165) > Atom 2 (220) > Atom 3 (300) > Atom 3.5 (310) > Atom 4 (350).
There is no cure.

Dash install in progress, didn't look like a trivial job...

Alan,

Can I ask when the photo was taken. Mines currently in build and the titanium chassis car next to it, looks like it could be it.

IVA on the 15th I believe.

Thanks
Andrew

Andrew,

Should've thought a little longer. My car will be in the workshop at the top of the site, your new build will be in the workshop next to the offices. The two are quite separate.

There is (pretty much) no chance that's your car.

Thanks Alan. Makes sense as I wasn’t expecting the build to be so advanced.

Oh my word yes. It took me and my daughter about 5 minutes to find the actual camera.
Very very highly recommended 'upgrade'

I don't want to pee on your parade, but a few immediate observations:
  • Your engine temp is not high enough
  • You are in a neutral gear
  • Your revs are not high enough
  • Your Mph is worse than a Nomad's
  • You have too much fuel
  • Your odometer is about 20,000 miles less than it should be
Bad Mr. [mention]AlanP[/mention]!

Can we get out and burn some rubber please?
