and parents friend in a nother convertible (not sure what it is) - Javilin i think

hmm, mountains Nebo and Glorious will be a fair slug for them... Not trying to be smart mate, but they could struggle up there - certainly won't be able to wind up to the speed limit too often

At the least it might be better to do it on a weekday with less traffic up there. Just a thought, have fun!

I wasn't having a go muzza2, just suggesting that hitting those roads when it's less busy i.e a weekday, might be a better idea. It would certainly be more relaxing.

While your parents car is called an MG TF, there was also a TF built in the 50's, as pictured below. I've also included pics of a Javelin and Spitfire. Like it or not, the Javelin would struggle on those roads, as would a 1950's era MG TF. A Mk3 Spitfire would be ok, but still...

Like I said previously, have fun!

EDIT: ***pics removed*** Google them if you want to know what they look like.....

Be that as it may Muzza, but I tend to agree with NMX516 when it comes to the Javelin (especially) and the Spitfire (likely) on a very hot day up those hills.

Have fun though.

without sounding rude or anything, but just because you work for shannons it doesn't mean you know all about cars, or even those cars.

But you do know a lot about insurance.

I wouldn't be risking taking those cars on such a large mountain run, be it fast paced or not.

but thats just IMO.

Whatever happens with the day, have fun.

? ? ?

Why is everyone so catty! Muzza was obviously nice enough to invite you all along to his family and friends car run so I don't understand why everyone is having a go at him and the cars that are going :roll:
