Let’s see if this works!!
Video for noise, not going fast but accelerating up to 40 mph, then cruising. |

I like how the fuel gauge still reads diesel... Ed

That does my head in!!
Been trying to find someone who could do me a bespoke fascia but hitting a loss so far... have tried Alive and Twisted but no luck yet. Also spoke to Andy McMaster who painted over his but would rather buy a new one and have white dials with no diesel writing!! James |

There's a chap on mig welding who does switch panels etc. Can you pull the gauge apart so that the inside can be replaced? Ed

I’m passing through Bristol on the 18th, dropping a hire car off at Birzzle Airport and taking the train from Brizzle TM, if you’re about and up for a lift. Be good to hear it in the flesh  Monsieur Le Grenadier

Central bristol is about 15 miles away and a whole nightmare of traffic to be sat in 😪 |

Can't beat a v8, I know that videos don't compare to being in one. Especially when an auto changes gear, the engine tone changes with it

Completely understand. I’ll be driving up from Cornwall on Fri, so if I get away early enough I’ll stop for a jar. Monsieur Le Grenadier
