Hi Ray
Hows life? Where are you now GB or Stateside?
Vetts in the paint shop at the moment having a freshen up, just as well as the weather has been so bad here I doubt if I could have used it.

But only if you do an oil change every 3k. I wonder how much M1 it takes and what grade.

I'm still in the UK. But back in Yorkshire again. My car still needs paint. Maybe one day. As soon as my garage is sorted, I install the new top I've had for six years!
Take care.
