Track day booked at my local circuit (Donnington), track tyres booked, perfect weather forecast, car polished and looking perfect...
I've been away travelling with work for the last 10 days and so I nipped in to the garage this evening to check that the battery is all fine (had a problem with a flat battery last summer some time).
Strange pool of fluid under the car!! A few phone calls later, it appears the oil seals have gone on the transmission and so the car is xxxxed......First real problem that I've had with the car and it happens the night before my one track day of the year. Everyone's been very polite at McLaren, not much they can do and so no point going off on one - but can't pretend I'm not very disappointed.
I don't live far from the track and so I'll pop down in the morning to see you all enjoying yourself - I'll be the bloke in the Audi. Just took the attached photo to highlight my frustration
