The main thing with the upgrade Stuart apart from the bhp on kickdown, is the driveability low down. It pulls so much better and alot of the time there is no need for kickdown when overtaking. I am also returning according to the computer 2 mpg more, its money very well spent.

How far into nottingham do you know john as it will be easier to guide you in from there than try to give you a full route from mansfield

Only place I go to on a regular basis is the Lace market, which is central, if I could have a postcode I can get one of those AA route thingies.

You will need SNEINTON DALE as the road sorry but don`t know the postcode in that area lance would be better off giving you that as he lives on that road

It`s not too hard to find

Best of luck lol

Hi Stuart, Can pick you up no problem, do you want to email me a phone number just in case I get lost. Mapperley plains is my usual way into Nottingham so should be okay, should be that way around 8.
