On the way up to Wheels Up North, the car again was faultless, but again I stopped to top of the fuel tank! After meeting up near Preston, we convoyed up and had a little play on the M6, all within the speed limits on some empty stretches of motorway. It brought back some smiles about the first part of the trip to Scotland back in May of this year. And just how differnet, better, faster and more responsive the car is now.

The weather up in Windermere wasn’t great, with some hints of sun, but the car received some really positive attention. People love the engine bay, with lots of “oh look at that”, and “that’s how you do it properly”. I love hearing that, it makes the expenditure, the research and the time without the car all worthwhile.

I also managed to catch up, unexpectedly, with some old car friends, which is always a great thing. Just a shame it’s only once or twice a year to get to see friends. Something we all need to remedy in the future, not just at the next Wheels Up North.

Next event is The Ultimate Show in Liverpool, on Sunday 28th July – the day after I get the Supra…
