Well deserved, just been away for 3 weeks out of 4 and 1500 miles, Torquay, St Ives and then Whitby. Never missed a beat and about 30 mpg.
I did have to sort the overflow valve out in the petrol tank vent pipe after the spring failed....stank of petrol. Solved by using the spring from a biro pen.
One in the eye for people who say these cars are unreliable.

St Ives drip-fed sights of Excel can only be a good thing. We won't be visiting this year cos we're waiting for the A30 roadworks nightmare to end.

And as you say bash, MTNS ... minor trouble, never serious.😁
