Re: My 2cv Jonathan wrote: Now excuse me, I'm off to bed as I need to be up early to fix it. The exhaust is blowing after I hit 81mph coming down a steep hill on the M5 last week. Fixed and running sweet  The nuts holding the manifold on the head had worked loose, all nice and tight again and sounding lovely.

Re: My 2cv Yeah Paul, looks good. I'm off up to Wroxeter Roman Museum in Shropshire on Saturday. There's a programme on Ch4 at present that shows a bunch of builders recreating an authentically built Roman villa and the finished structure is being officially opened to the public this weekend. Should be a good day out, if the weather is kind.

Ooooh, might see if I can persuade Rachael to go along to that and see you there-best programme on the TV at the moment and absolutely fascinating.

Re: My 2cv Took the 2CV to the Wye Knot 2CV pub meeting last night and it was okay till I was around 8miles from the pub and it started to lose power and cough and splutter  I did manage to get to the pub and once there I sprayed some WD40 over the coil (it was raining quite heavily) and the drive home was faultless. Not too sure what the problem was, I use it in heavy rain on motorways and I've never had a problem with wet electrics, so who knows?  I'm just happy it recovered.

Re: My 2cv Gave the 2CV a fairly decent wash this morning and also removed the front seats and carpet to give the interior a good going over. I've fitted the BX GTi seats sans head-rests and took the car for a good 60+mile drive round the Malvern Hills/Ledbury with the hood open and what a fantastic day it's been. It's now back in the garage and waiting for Sunday morning when I'll fire it again and head for Abergavenny for the "Run-on-Hay" scenic convoy to Hay-on-Wye.
