Orangina, xk! (that's Ancient Celtic for May the Blessings of the Gods Continue to Shine upon You). Hope you got a desk/dockyard job with the Royal Kiwi Navy, otherwise you'll be all at sea & won't be able to drive those exotic vehicles. Guess you're not in Andover any more!

Good news sir! Tractor sounds a good idea. Do you have a use for it or is it just for fun?Though from the subject title I was expecting to see you'd spotted an orange Kia Pride.

Glad to hear you got there OK, did you manage to shift the 9000 and 450SLC before you went? Cheers for those mags by the way, the Jaguar Enthusiast ones are giving me the horn for an early XJ40...
