Been following this from the start, well done to you for organising it, and what a fantastic response by the dealership, truly above and beyond!!!

[Stegel]

Fantastic tale - well done to you, and a truly heartwarming effort from the dealership.

[JakeT]

That's a lovely story. Good on both you and the dealership to make such a effort. That's that cars are about, the memories, and experiences.

[lockhart flawse]

Terrific! Great update and well done to all involved.

[SHutchinson]

Great memories for everyone. Top work.

[jamesson]

What a great story and well done to the dealership for their efforts. Top marks to all concerned - and finally, what a lovely car.

Bloody surprise onions everywhere

A couple of extra pics - forgot to add a 'rear' shot.





Last tank of fuel lasted 370 miles (calculated as 30mpg) and the current tank is over 200 with more than half left, so I'm hoping for even better on the third.

Many thanks for all the comments. Lovely to see all the appreciation for the car and its history. Needless to say, it's a keeper now!

Cheers,

Drew.

Just brilliant, Drew, and top marks to the dealership for putting the welcoming committee together.

Oh, and the car is bloody excellent too.

That's brilliant, "surprise onions" here too, & exactly why certain grumpy tw4ts should get back in their boxes
