Agreed Ally, I dont mind driving a couple of hours, but beyond say, 150 miles the price does get expensive.
Im currently averaging 26/27 mpg so has to be taken into account.

PVS will be a blast this year steve, with Redvictor 3 there.

See if i can make it there without a glitch this year. of the 3 times i've taken the turbo there, it's played up twice.
