Got the form, the guys will come to house this am and put a new Vredstein on, check rim for damage and then take it back for some tracking and check of wishbone etc......he says it happens all the time over here, re the claims...

Not surprised it happens so often. One of my Lotus mates asked me what the roads were like in view of organising a club driving holiday around Ireland, I told him not to bother as there would be casualties. Probably a driving holiday more suited to a Subaru club.... Or maybe a Land Rover club.

Mind you in my fairly limited number of excisions into the North I've found the roads generally to be better maintained than in the Republic.

What a bummer P. Just be thankful there was no damage to the wheel or suspension I guess. So the inaugural NI gathering is still to happen..............Maybe we can get the numbers up?

Frank, I'm actually bringing the GT over on Sunday 27th March until the Thursday, so maybe we'll sort something out for that week.
