Not looking forward to "basic" motoring again, been a bit spoilt with the equipment level the 75 had.

Big thanks to all the advice I have had over the years from all you good folk.
I'll still hang around and enjoy the banter.
Good luck with the new car Bernard
It's horrible having to say goodbye to your old car but you have to do what you can with the cost of motoring these days
I'm fortunate that my commute to work is such a short distance that my fuel needs aren't that bad, if I had miles to crunch there is no way I could afford to run my girl!

Are you staying on as an RS Sir?
