When were you thinking?

Yep all over this. It can't come quick enough......
My little blue zed is in lots of bits. With lots of things started and not many finished! I may have found the limits of my time and ability!!

I'll come up with a route in the next couple of weeks after I've been on a bit of a dry run to check distance, times etc. There are some great roads in Rutland/Leicestershire and some decent places for lunch as well.

Think its because coupes are like caterpillars and remain in the chyrsalis stage yet to turn into a beautiful butterfly that is a roadster :poke:
