    What a trip! Driving your own track day car till Nurburgring and then making a full throttle lap is the BEST way to broke an engine. I can feel, despite its leaking oil, Phill was happy. The Miata's smiling face fit perfectly to the situation.

      It's just a roll-up cigarette, the tax on tobacco is really high in UK so it's cheaper to roll your own. Besides it would be incredibly stupid, dangerous (and illegal) to be DUI whilst driving that vehicle, with four people and trailer on it.

    AA European insurance is your friend. The water pump on my Discovery popped at the 'ring last year, called them up and got it recovered by the same guys who recover all the crashed stuff within hours, they paid for a flight home, a hire car for a day and sent an AA truck over to pick it up in Germany the next week. The cost for all that? £75!
