"My lovely car now sold onto a very happy new owner.
I still love this marque and I will still be around, preferred selling to breaking, as a great runner and performer"

Not me mate.................... Had almost the entire team of mods and directors from the OC doing the testing, made for quite a crowd in my garage :)

I had forgotten. :nurse: add to my long list of faults, one VIS (Variable Intake System) actuator failed. Replacement supplied by some old git from oop norf somewhere, If I could remember his name, I would commend him for unfailing generosity and friendship. :) Not a bad snogger either. :D

Interestingly, I didn't consider either of the faulty components as much of a problem as neither were show stoppers. Strange how if they had been they would be fixed in my mind.................. did I say mind? You need a brain to have one of them. :lol:
