Hmm, TBAH I've not been up there for about 18 months. Thanks for giving
me something to worry about ;)

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember italiancar(a)gmail.com (SteveH)

Conversely, in my ShiteOldTerrace I was seriously considering converting
the front room to a garage. Tickled I was recently to see somebody had
done just that.

My enduring memory of that model is of the local dealer who told me he
was being ear-bashed by some owner who thought it was running wrong when
it wasn't (reckoned it should go faster), and handed it back to him with
a piece of gaffer tape obscuring the P' on the badge.

I've got an old piece of plasterboard for exactly the same reason
(polystyrene face out) for when I back the Audi into the garage as the
reversing beeper (dunno what you call it in English) always goes to
the constant tone with at least 20cm space.

Works a treat.
