Today I have mostly been fitting new discs and pads and now for the first time in 2 years the car is actually quite nice to drive, it still fidgets on road imperfections but it no longer tries to kill me when I reach 50mph or when I get on the brakes. Result.

Temeraire (2018 quasar grey automatic)
Pavement princess or back road menace?
Bellerophon (2024 grello van daily)
ADORJ Attention Deficit Ooooh Race Jimny!

Problems with ruts? a few trips out on the Plain in my Vit convinced me that 33s are almost essential for some parts of it. I spent most of one day towing out a Vit on 235s.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

ya ruts and deep mud, the jimny hates it and the clutch is to week any amount of stick and it slips (brand new exedy) i mite put a race clutch in next time
the mud up there at the moment is like glue for some reason, bits i usually drive straight through were a problem and for the first time my brother in his pajero drove straight past i wasn't happy
lots of work and money to go for 33s

think i mite park it up for a wile, absence make the heart grow fonder and all that

it was a nice day out tho
