Welcome Jim, great choice and I’m guessing you not only bought the car in the North but live there too?
I’ve just addressed the Haggis in your ancestors style ...

Nice run down the coast that, I’ve done it many, many times :)

Very nice car you’ve got and some nice roads to use it on :cool:

Disaster, went to Tesco ( weekly isolating shop), parked clear of other cars, tannoy for owner of e500 merc to go to service desk...guy there sorry mate I've reversed into your car (at least he was honest).
