MLOC Chatsworth 27th July

Leaving my car in the garage and never walking around the front does a very good job as well, must remember to use the car this summer…

When it comes to stone chips I reckon mine spent time in an asteroid belt…and if the suspension is anything to go by parked under the sea. It’s a solid car though :angel:

So we are all meeting for breakfast at Hossop then driving to Chatsworth, is that right? It’s been a long day…

Aye meet at Hassop Station Café – DE45 1NW about 11ish and head off. We will have had a leisurely breakfast at the hotel and head to Hassop for a cuppa before a gentle trundle into Chatsworth.

I don’t know what time the guys on the early morning run will leave Hassop? I guess it will be around then?

Great, 2 hr trip for me. Probably coming in convoy with Jabbs and Ted

Just spoken with Pierre (Series_one on here) & he will be joining us at Chatsworth - top geezer! :sunglasses: :sunglasses: :sunglasses:

Have a good weekend gent’s

WOOOOO HOOOOOO!

I’m comming baby!! :smiley:

Just arrived from Budapest last night :slight_smile: I’ll look up DE45 1NW and work out how to get there from Chislehurst Kent/London in time. Anyone else leaving from somewhere around there? Im sat nav slave otherwise lol.

Thanks Rob for the headsup!

Have a great time guys

Cheers - but Shrek would love a day out too, so why not bring him Steve? :sunglasses:

:smiley: ^^^^^ this

Hear, hear!

Made it to my sister’s place north of Brum, car has developed a vibration under load…nothing obvious visually wrong ( although in fairness it would have it pretty fookin’ obvious for to spot it!). Don’t really want to come to Chatsworth in an S-Max :frowning:

:frowning:

Sombody near by must have a ramp to offer help. Engine mount, exhaust bolt?

Floor or diffuser would be too easy to spot so Im guessing the above. Loose wheel nuts would be a nice easy one too. Didn’t you just have MBR service it, what was done, that bit perhaps?

I can pick you and your lady up in the Evora if you like.

Could try the Edwards . . .they’re pretty close at hand, I think.

Checked wheels are all torqued up, it’s not that. It feels like drivetrain tbh, maybe CV but I can’t see a boot split or anything. I’ve just got to the hotel so I’m tempted to just trickle around in it with my fingers crossed.

So the question is do I save the car for tomorrow or use it tonight to go to the pub meet :question:

Use it for pub run and take advice from the collective (before they sup too much, obviously)

'cos the crowd is always right :smiley:

Good luck with it. Bound to be a mechanic owner at the pub who can correctly id it.

I would love to have brought him down but goddaughters 2nd birthday party today

You have the long wheelbase version?
Douglas Barder would find the back of mine a squeeze :slight_smile:

Plenty of ladies have been in back seat already, no complaints so far :smiley:

Does look better when the stilletto’s exit from the front pax seat tho :stuck_out_tongue:
