Default 12 Months and running

So due to too many cars and no free time the 75 was garaged over 12 months ago. Today a new battery quick turn and away to go. Passed the mot too no issues. Oil filters done and ready to go.

May start using as my daily drive again.

I suppose that all depends on whether he's also been garaged for the last 12 months

Good to hear that it started first time and runs as sweetly. I bet ya missed being behind the wheel of a Connoisseur SE, Bentleys are good of course, but so are Baby Bentleys too

Congratulations Phil in getting the 75 up and running. Of note, the JVC TV I bought from your factory years ago, is still doing well in East Africa. A beautiful product. Thanks for the update, it's great to hear from you

Thanks all. Yes missed the 75 in all honesty but thankfully keeping it garaged snug and dry has certainly done it no harm. Insured yesterday also, cost me a staggering £92.70, shocking

Glad the TV is still working, we make an excellent product here in Wales

Hope to catch up at some point and maybe spend a little more time here too, I am sure there is a lot more chrome and walnut Trebor has arranged
