Hi. I've just joined and bought a 75 a few days ago. I think I got a good one! I've not had a 75 before so don't know that much about them except for what I've read on here over the past few days.

Ali.

Hi & welcome along, prepare to get addicted. There is only man in the North East for you, although you may have to ask him very nicely as he's a busy man, MarinaBrian

Sorry.... Saying "we'd all like to see pictures of Vicky", didn't seem quite right, somehow.

Anyhow, thanks for the pics - she's a real looker. I wish you both a long n' happy union!

I'd be very grateful if a friendly experienced member could have a look around my car for me and see what they think and give me some pointers and advice.

I live near Hexham but am willing to travel 50-60 miles each way.

Thanks,
Ali.
Looks very nice...it's a Connoissuer SE.
