Tightened my wheels using my new torque wrench. Watched this first and it certainly helped although it went on a bit :whistle:

I have parked cars at Gatwick when I finished uni. I suggest you find an alternative before your luck runs out!

Quite shocked that Rebecca lets anyone (never mind an airport "parking attendant") park her car. I don't think I could enjoy my pool side cocktail if I did that. Haven't you ever seen the Ferris Beuller movie?  :laugh:

I know, weird eh, but I've used meet and greet for years from before the time I became completely obsessed with my cars, so just carried on.  So far...so good.  :laugh:

And yes, I've seen Ferris Beuller, lol.

Nice wheels/ride height and colour combo, but needs the GTD badge back on.  :smiley:
