    The best bit is... I got there and back and didn't even see the fuel gauge move.

    It didn't smoke much either, which was shocking considering the abuse it gave the people behind me on the motorway. lmao
    Teeth? LUXURY! When I was a child we ate by putting rocks in our mouth and jumping up and down.

    Apparently on the way up I had glowing bits of stuff coming out of the exhaust, which I'm guessing is soot on the inside burning off as it gets abnormally hot.

    Would have been super cool if it had done it on the rollers too. lmao

    It's not abuse i was fearing for my paintwork lol, it's not everyday you see a diesel cav shooting glowing bits of soot or exhaust pipe over the motorway, i must admit that it was the highlight of the journey, made the cav seem even more awesome.

    Hey guys was good day up until i had to go due to unforseen events. So my appoligies for that would have liked to have seen the day out. Was good that TV guy managed to show after his start to the day. Got a very happy result with mine on the rollers. 207bhp at clutch and 188.8 at wheels with 177 of torque
    Anyone know when this gonna be in TV?
