:lol: yeah dont you just love series motors?
any other motor would have died on the way back.
.did have my doubts about doing that much in 1 day in a series - especially as im off work with sciatica  :oops: , but the seating position actually helped a bit.
still been there and done it now, so just need time to sort the 90 out and prepare the series for its turbo rebuild ;)

mark.yellow.series.3:
the most ive ever driven in one day in my series is 3000miles!
no actually thats a lie, more like 12 miles ( from place i bought it to the workshop). where its been for 5 months. :P

hobbit:
My old lightweight did 70 once, and did well on consuption, it was a petrol, mind you it was on a recovery truck taking me home :wink:  :lol:

Considering I went down for the day at 45-50 :?

:lol:
just waiting to rip the 2.5 td out of the 90 and refit in the series..along with an overdrive - should improve mpg and my eardrums...trying to find out what they line the 90's bulkhead with as its a damn site quieter than the series

I once did Nottingham to brigton and back in a series III 88 Diesel ragtop - set off at 1am, got there at about 8, I had a 1/2 hour nap in the services on the way down. I came back only a couple of days leter too. In the one ton, I did Leeds - Gloucestershire over two days, with a break at the girlfriends in brum. Im gonna have to drive it all the way back straight up though...
