Fantastic mate. Just had my first MOT after 3 years and everytime I get in, it's like picking up a new motor.

Hope you and Kat are keeping well Chris, heres to another year of fun with the beast

Better story than Dads though. His failed its MOT on corroded brakes, because, as Roger(monkfish) put 'you are using it wrong'(Read as not driving it enough), poor thing sits outside hardly getting used.

I have suggested that he let me drive it to work for him, just to keep it happy of course driving but he hasn't taken me up on the kind offer yet, i'll stick to the TVR for now. Although if i ever get out of my 35,000 mile a year commute a Monaro/R8 will be on the top of my 'commuterwagon' list biggrin

Hi all. Yep, me too. Mines due 31st Oct. Apart from that 6 month vacation it had at Groses' it's been my daily drive.......and what a drive. My longest serving car. I have been contemplating changing though to get something with a BIGGER boot. Now decided to buy a cheap run about and KEEP the monaro too. How's life John?
