That wiring..... so typical of the kit car / home build situation.....  The chain steering wheel..... lost for words..... each to their own   

Stowage boxes are useful as stuff can be left in the buggy out of sight.

Mind you 2500 miles in 11 days is probably a bit of a stretch 

I hate to break it to you mate, but I`m counting on some South West support next time we head over for an IBW - that's around 1300 miles in 5 days   

Yes both you Dave's are lucky in having the extra legitimate journey time to enjoy at both the start and end of an IBW.

And don't worry (Cornish) Dave on any cruise or IBW there are frequent stops to fuel, snack, tinker with a buggy, admire the scene or wonder where we are !

So roughly how long do I have to build up to that?

I`m hoping for 2023

Don't worry about reliability etc as we travel with the best Buggy pit crew imaginable 

Provided I can make it as far as you to start with

Mine should be back on the road shortly, so we will have to have a few practice runs in each others direction 

Sounds good to me.

Where's halfway do you reckon?
Saltash? ish?

Saltash Probably about half way - however, we tend to drive to Mevagissey a lot for Fish & Chips in the Sharks Fin - Well worth the drive for us as the food is awesome

Ooh Mevagissey. That sounds like an adventure to me!

I now have a revised estimated completion date for my buggy of 21st January at which point I hope to be able to:

1. Update this thread with everything that has been completed on it;

2. Arrange an adventure to Mevagissey and hopefully meet up with Dave DND (if he hasn't got fed up waiting and been down and bought his fish and chips without me). This should also incorporate...

3. Getting a current photo to submit for the January challenge

4. Get some miles on the clock and test out those new heated gloves that are sitting here all charged up ready to go.

Fingers well and truly crossed.

We're praying for you fellow Dave. 

Thanks Bajaowa.
I should pop down and see you too, after all you are only down the road.
Get a Philps pasty?
