Very nice. What do you think of the Goodyears?
GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

Bit too early to tell. Maybe by the time they have a few hundred miles on them I'll have a better idea.

OEM rims and PS4’s back on the car & TPMS reset with the Autel Tool [ 
]
Great excuse for a coffee run to The Hut [torque the wheel nuts again to be sure and check the TPMS sync]

What’s it like in The Hut now? It’s decades since I’ve been in there, it was called the West Meon Hut back then.OEM rims and PS4’s back on the car & TPMS reset with the Autel Tool [

All it needs is a crowd. Today the car park was full of super-bikes with a strong contingent of Police bikes & riders present
- all very social and enthusiast focused. Nice!
Was always a fan of Loomies Cafe but they need to improve their coffee/food.

Out of interest I tried hypermiling the 86 on the 50 mile commute to work and managed a decent 45 mpg!
To celebrate I decided to kerb my wheel and damage my tire on the way home.
Looks like I'll be buying a Sharpie this weekend.

Never a fan of aftermarket wheels but they look really good. A tyre review update would be welcome in due course, good choice with the Eagles. They give a peaceful easy feeling, seemingly.
Welcome to she Sharpie club. I recommend the double ended one. Apt for application and self reflection on one's sins
Car looks great, you can get decent coffee at the BP station in the background, always stop there on route to working in Winchester
Jeeeezus! Was the kerb armed with a knife!?
So the song goes ..... good choice with the Eagles. They give a peaceful easy feeling, seemingly.

Hit a bird! 
Was heading south for a family do on some lovely country roads. I had managed to avoid a sheep and its two lambs, a couple of suicidal pheasant's and wasn’t aware of this until I reached my destination and it was pointed out. Now removed, memorial had and grill appears undamaged thankfully.

Took mine in to local Toyota servcice for it's first annual service today, they used "Toyota Genuine Motor Oil" PFE 5w30 which I did not expect but happily surprised as I was gonna ask them to put in 5W30 anyway instead of the 0W20 the manual calls for, but I forgot to ask for it.
Where I live, that's just someone taking their dinner home.

Ah the everyday mundane type of day yesterday. Picked son up from school (embarrassingly it was the first time I've parallel parked it in 6 months, that camera is handy) and the boot is perfect for his guitar. Then off to town for his haircut where I spent the whole appointment looking out the window at the tight carpark space I was in hoping nobody dinged my doors.
I did exactly the same a couple of months ago when approaching an air pump at around 5mph. I had it checked and it was OK, so I bought some vulcanising fluid from eBay and and now it's an invisible repair. Haven't got around to touching up the rim yet though. It has another couple of scuffs - I've never known wheels to be so easily marked. I think they're made out of some sort of cheddar.

I'm about to try to get Techstream to talk to my car so I can unlock both doors and put all the windows down when the weather warms up, any tips or guides in English for Techstream?
There's a whole thread about it (titled 'coding via service departments') but, here's a link to where to find those options from my post within that thread. My main bit of advice is to be patient. The software is sloooooow to respond, even on a new laptop, so once you've clicked on something give it time to respond. Clicking again just results in the software crashing.
