Great chap and we worked fairly closely on the reintorductino of MGR products into Japan (as I was looking after the Japanese homologation of our 75/ZT and TF products).

Hey Nic....how things? I have just looked at the VCA website and the penny has dropped 'so to speak'. (previous conversations many moons ago)

Do you still stay in touch with John? seems like our two Cars mentioned above belonged to two MGR folks who worked together?
