Yesterday i had a good drive out over the hills and far away as it was such a nice day and i wanted to put my new coilovers to the test, see how they coped with the bumpy windy roads in the pennines. Was also a good opportunity to get some good pics as there is a lot of good places and landscapes out there. My mate decided to tag along as he has just got himself a new car. Volvo C30. Not a bad car to be honest.ENJOY! My route went from my house in beamish up to: Hillend, Stanhope, Killhope, END OF THE ROAD!

when do I ever turn up at yours with the AA behind me chris? I don't have breakdown, I have a girlfreind who's dad has a recovery truck who will save me Thanks for the comments. Thought I would share my day out as I know most of you like B road blasts and photos. Where are you working like footas212? The roads are class in the 6. My mate eve enjoyed it in the C30. As for the C30 al I know is its a 1.6 16v, nice little car for him as he's only 20/21ish... haha There is more even better roads if I kept driving north but it was getting late and I wanted to be home to watch top gear ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |
