I will keep an eye out for a Black one, there is one nearby, immaculate, gets a lot of attention from its owner, could that be you?

I can bring North Staffordshire oatcakes on the way up to Halewood.
Take 'em home and have them for breakfast with bacon and cheese.

Bloody good too!! Another member of the failed FL2 clutch/DMF club, twice.

One week on and 1000 miles later all is well, extremely impressed and looking forward to many more miles. I have been invited to an event at the dealers on Thursday to see the Evoque and a test drive the week after, that will be interesting.

Changed front side lights for LED ones which i was a bit disappointed with as although they have 5 leds and are bright they seem to be very directional so daytime they are not very visible, I may have too experiment a little with those?

I have booked on the Grand Tour of Northumberland at the end of this month, might as well use it for what it was designed for. I think it is more of a family day than serious off road which will suit a novice like me.

Provided that you put them into reflector bowls designed for ordinary filament lamps they always will be disappointing. I've experimented with them several times before Rolling Eyes

Glad you're enjoying your new Freeelander though Thumbs Up

No I thought about HDR but thought better of it, not everyones taste. Might have a play later and see what happens with HDR and that image, I have a few copies I can piddle about with.
