Dai, reckon you could bring my manifold too? Broken T4 has messed up my plans to make a trip to you...

Please note we are unable to reserve a seating area or to provide a special menu for groups opting for the standard tour. Visitors are also welcome to use the picnic area adjacent to Hut 4.

Don’t forget to visit the shop in Block B which stocks a fascinating range of books and souvenirs to remind you of your visit.

by the way I would recommend on site parking which is
£3 per car on Saturday and Sunday

the other option is to park at Bletchley station and walk through

Personally I wouldent be happy to leave a dozen or so 300's unattended in a station car park ,

I think they might attract unwanted attention

...then what...you'll race me, beyotch? 'Cus yo' fast car will be broken, and the working one will be slow ;)

Genius thought...if I tax the car as a 1.4, then swap in the 360 drivetrain...do you think the cheap tax is still valid for the rest of the year? :lol: I thought not...sm56

I'm sorry... what is that? Despite being a stock GLT it's still quicker than any of your 300's, as it's actually roadworthy ;)

Anyway, bring the 343 :)
