Online works fine. Just did mine online. I'll take a chance on the "failure to display" until it arrives in the post.

If ordered on 29th or before, you have 5 days grace. Ordering on 1st, you dont.

.. and if you order before the 1st and the car is SORN you get to pay for an extra month while still waiting for it in the post.

Immaterial, anyway, because it's currently up on axle stands having the cracked brake disk replaced. Crack looks old enough, but it's done about a mile since MOT.

Good info on wet grip and noise levels Cliffo. What are they like in the dry?

Must say I'm glad I didn't bother with winter tyres this year, would have been a complete waist of time and money given the little snow we had. Last year would have been different possibly, but even that only gave two or three days Argo.

Tyres??? I bought a rather Jeep......and after today I want another Mig....

Hmm,Sure do sleep Steve,But it's such an inconvenient nuisance

Oh dear Vamps
2 very differant motors
I've never driven a Jeep but I can sympathise
Quite a contrast !!

As for the ride of the Michelin Alpin tyres in dry conditions
I've found them to be much the same as the Michelin Pilot Sport 3s
Possibly quieter
I'm changeing over the wheels this weekend
So I'll pay particular attention to any differances that are highlighted

Did you ever get the car running on lpg Cliff ?

[Cliffo B]

Well Steve
In short not yet
Had to stop
Other things took priority on my time(family)
And wanted to do the suspension update (bladders) along with full lube changes Eng, Autobox, Diff
Like to do this stuff in prep to help Miggy provide worry free Caravan touring
After touring finished another priority
Full undercarriage waxoil like treatment (keep the corrosive winter road treatment from attacking Miggy)
And of course Winter Wheels had to sort out steelies (source and refurb)
I'm not a particularly speedy doer but I'm thorough
Up to the present time outside temperatures been sub zero
So now looking forward to a final completetion of the LPG
How it stands
Rear end will be finished when filler installed
All pipework & wireing is complete as far as engine bay
Injectors are installed & manifold jetted
So whats left is vapouriser and all the other items in engine bay
Of course there's the commissioning inspection and certification to face
