Drove the 20 odd miles to Falkirk through an absolute Pea-Souper, and had an additional immobiliser system fitted. Gave it a soapy rinse when I got home to dilute the crud that I'd collected. Booked in for Caliper painting next week.

Had a nice moment this morning when sitting at traffic lights in Stockport… I was right next to a red GT86 and beeped my horn.. the guy beamed at me and gave me a thumbs up .. We then and we had a brief moment of mutual admiration.. For our cars 😬

Long long day for work in London today (5am start for goodness sake!). Nice to return to the station car park to my pride and joy.

Back home now for a peaty whiskey. Whilst relaxing in my premium lounge wear.

Nice ‘baggsie’ of the corner space there! My goodness, those spaces look massive or is it an optical illusion? Minor deviation: The local Tesco has resurfaced and repainted the entire car park and the spaces are now so narrow I can’t get in/out of my car if the next space is occupied. It’s even the subject of a local residents’ forum. That’s progress for ya!

Take an inflatable small person and get yourself into the parent & child spaces…

Looks so good, did you order directly with them? How long was the wait for it to come in?
Rokblokz were quick - 7 days but they offer slower options.

However, just checked their website and they may have introduced a minimum $150 spend for international deliveries.

Paid:
Splash guards in black with laser etched logos @ $104.99
Delivery via UPS WorldWide Expedited @ $46

I emailed them, explained I required UK delivery. They provided delivery options and then emailed a PayPal invoice. They were very professional.

The spaces are pretty large. I've tucked myself right into the corner so there's obviously less room if you park in the entre of a space, but certainly wider than most supermarket spaces.

It's a decent car park - there's about 60 spaces and it had two cars in when I arrived at pre-6am, and 5/6 when I left in the evening. It fills up in the day but I've rarely seen it more than half full post COVID with the advent of hybrid working. (y)

Today I booked my complimentary first service (haven't been told there's a filter shortage yet) and I also noticed that Aldi are selling electric blue drink bottles and they're not even charging extra for the pearlescent paint.

Disabled Keyless Entry & Start. Now only pressing the fob buttons will lock and unlock the doors. Keyfob also has to touch the start button before it will power up.
I was tempted to configure this as well.
What happens when I stall the car? Do I still need to press the fob against the start button to restart?
