Yes Phil I would love to drive my 400 everyday but out here in the sticks the roads are sh*t and it would break my heart to subject Rubin to that kind of thing, I am lucky I have a 4x4 as a work car which I abuse for everyday use.

Never put mine away. Regularly go to work(40 miles)with the top down. Old age & selective memory means I am always surprised when I finish work & find it frozen up!

Bzzzt. Incorrect. The sunrise time gets later until Jan 6th.
Sunset gets even later though, so the days do actually get longer.

Would like to venture out too but taking the sills off at present to see whats going on at outriggers - so far so good apart from surface rust and lots of debris , trust the weather to be nice !
