Well my Gf has just recently informed me her graduation will be taking place in Adelaide on the 29th this month, we weighed out the different options and because money is a bit tight atm we decided to drive rather than catch a plane. I have been told the drive is real nice and also very long (approx 9hrs) keep in mind the furthest I have ever driven is from Melb SE suburbs to Wangarrata and back.
I have also never driven the MPS further than up in the mountains with the rest of the MPS guys on here.
I know they say a long trek like this makes a car show it's true colors, and thought I'd ask who has driven their MPS on long distance journeys and also if you have any pointers and advice????
I've so far gotten a head start and given it an oil change, rotates the tyres and this weekend will be changing the coolant, and also might do the brake fluid while I'm at it...
I've also been thinking about stone chips and bugs, so I plan on using some of that blue 3M tape to cover the front end or perhaps some cling wrap and some of that mesh to cover the front nostril to avoid crap from getting into the cooler and radiator fins...
Would I get any hassles from the boys in blue if I drape my car in that blue tape stuff???
