Yes I know the route you took then, Ilam, then through Grindon and back via Onecote and Bottomhouse then maybe Ipstones or back via Ashboune, or even sunny Alton where I am. Used to do that run reglarly in my late teens on my motorbike, great scenic run.
That pub at Onecote is ok for a stop off BTW, great outdoor beer garden when its nice n sunny!
I was under my motor by 4pm putting my rear bumper back on. Took it off to do a small job and ended up replacing all the brackets and the crash cans, as they were siezed solid and the bolts all sheared off. Then found some hidded corrosion that had to be treated and resprayed. All back together now with the added bonus of a new rear view camers fitted into the bumper and piped in to my new head unit. Not the best car to see behind with having the smaller glass screen, rear spiler, roll hoops and a smoked windstop! So the camera should help any tricky reversing manoevers!
The wind is quite a rare car, only made them for a couple of years, bought the missus one a few weeks ago, only got 6K pn the clock, so like new. Its got a powered hood and climate control, cruise control and is a nippy 1.2 turbo. I do like it, and its a head turner in its own rite...still not as good as my TF though, but her indoors loves it!
