what a bummer, worth hiring a trailer and tow car?, no family that could store it for you?

Might be worth getting some quotes on shiply for transporting it. If not can hire a recovery low loader type van pretty cheap which would mean you don't need a tow car. Always ways round these things

I think you will find a lot of offers of help, let us know when you are back and we can go from there

I am sure that since it is your property you can collect it (reclaim it?), but I don't know who to speak to to gain access to the workshop? Perhaps Silverstone (or other landlord) directly...

Well update time...

Car is now down with Drew and his first inspection suggests that things might not be too bad to get the MOT sorted... It now starts and runs at least!
If that is actually the case (I don't trust this car lol) I can get tax and head over and pick it up.....

Then it is working out the next pieces of the puzzle - the turbo, manifold, drains and vnt electronics......

then injectors.....

then mapping and dyno session...

then maybe it might be finished! (maybe) lol
