I collected the car on Thursday and drove, very gently (no more than 45mph, 1500prm), back to Oakham to collect Coco from School. Although 10 minutes late to collect her she was absolutely delighted to be picked up in the Lagonda. We were both so pleased that I took her back to school in the car on Friday. I was told by Roy that we need to have done as close to 300 miles by the time I take her back on Tuesday. No more miles were achieved on Friday as I was picking up Flora-Jane and Rory and Saturday was busy with Ballet in the morning (for Coco not me!). I managed 100 miles yesterday and 80 this morning (after an early start). With Roy’s miles we have done 300 by the time it got back to the garage. Then the moment of truth, emptying the engine oil through a filter there was no sign of any debris whatsoever! We were both delighted.
Now its heads down for the exhaust and sump guard. I must remember to call the Monit people for some feedback.
When all is said and done we do now have a car that seems to running really well and we have already done a lot of work to get her into rally condition.
