Debate
 
Well be doing alot of thinking about this and still thinking just comes down to job front

1. Go to the ring
2 . Map car instead
3. Or do both

Rdlangy1 10-03-2016 09:25 AM

Personally - the obvious answer is both if you can afford it !

if not - I would come to the Ring, and then map the car later in the year :ok:

Depends if you're happy taking the car to Germany with the current map. If you're not convinced the map is right for the current build then it could be a very expensive trip.

Well be doing alot of thinking about this and still thinking just comes down to job front

1. Definately go to the ring 2016
2 . Use SatNav not Map in car
3. Do 1 & 2 above

BIG"E" 10-03-2016 10:44 AM

Dont fancy going down that route again shane

BIG"E" 10-03-2016 01:35 PM

Surely if you've had a new engine,

Your map should be checked..??:doubleup:

555_Si 10-03-2016 01:39 PM

Germany is not a trip I'd want to do with a less than perfect map as it is harsh on the car.

so save pennies, get a paper round and do both!

Trying to but you know how it is need this need that now where done nope forgot to do that :grin:

555_Si 10-03-2016 05:39 PM

know exactly how you feel, had everything figured out for Germany, then mortgage application pulled everything down like a pack of cards, having to think outside the box at the moment.

scotty 10-03-2016 06:22 PM

Its the mapping issue for me so already putting feelers out to the mappers to get prices as andy f is alot but we know how fecking good he is .

scotty 10-03-2016 06:38 PM

While we are doing a debate my fuel pump will need replace so looking at buying a new unit any thoughts .

Banstead Stig 10-03-2016 06:42 PM

I'd get the map sorted if only one thing is available.

The trip is doubtless brilliant, but the map sets your car up for the future, so is essential in my opinion.

As noted above, if the map isn't up to muster, you could end up with a far more substantial bill, not that you need telling that really after your bad luck last time out.

How does the cost of attending Germany as a passenger compare? Could that be a compromise? Go without the car and save more towards the car when you get back?

You still get a trip with your mates, just not in the car.

Banstead Stig 10-03-2016 07:18 PM

Sorry, was being thick.

I was thinking it was just you, so night bus down south then jump in as passenger with someone.

555_Si 10-03-2016 07:34 PM

Get a new walbro 255 before map, make sure air filter is all clean and newish good plugs in before map l, make sure it is all perfect. New fuel filter. You can do it,
