It's OK Eddie, I've got this for you.

Eddie has squeezed out the final turd of this year's 24-hour Round-Britain Shitathon into the engine bay of that Citroen, taking his final score up to eight plus one strained fart (which would have only counted in the event of a tie-break). This wins him the Set Of Random Keys shown in the picture, and the Round-Britain Shitathon Champion's title for the 3rd year in succession.

His achievement was marked by an outbreak of communal genital-admiration amongst members of a moribund beige forum.

He'll now be returning home on an Italian moped with a proper gearbox.
On the road:
1998 Disco 4.0 V8 (manual)
1994 Vauxhall Calibra 3.0 V6

Running but need fettling:

1986 Honda CBX750F
1991 Maserati 222 SE
1990 Yamaha XJ900F

Tax & MOT-exempt, woohoo!

1982 Suzuki GSX1100SZ Katana

Well my real name isn't Eddie, but I am the real Eddie Honda - part-time internet hard man and can give a belting hundred hand slap, though not so good at cleaning cars.

Great to deal with. Schedules aligned and collected me in the middle of town. Amongst other things, he has an MGF on the drive in front of the house in an Onslow pose.

Priority this morning was to fix the washer jet that came a cropper in the Safari Park, so I nipped round to Michael Douglas's...

Only found one other gear knob that was starting to split at the front anyway so just got the jets. He knows my face, so said I could just have them, but I insisted on leaving a quid for the tea boat.

Might go back for some other bits like a motor for the roof glass, but I really shouldn't get distracted like this! Great place for older chod.

Ace motors these Eurovans. I love my 806 which also needs a gear knob and washer jets. I seem to remember the washer jets are no longer available now for some reason. I keep thinking about uprating the suspension on mine as it wallows a bit when driven hard. My 806 has been tuned up with a great big intercooler and bigger injectors. It is a bit deceptive and will go over a ton easily.

I looked up the Citroen service box and they were still showing. Couldn't see how much they were as it was the middle of the night. Sometimes the prices vary wildly between Citroen/Pug for the same thing or country.

When I'm back in there for something else, I'll grab a couple.
