I've got a friend who is quite interested and discussing things with the owner who works with Bentleys and says the car is mechanical well maintained.

2500 Swedish miles Dave, 10km to 1 Swedish mile (also Norway). Funny, Sweden went metric in 1889 yet still use the term mile when referring to distance, and even foot & inch are used and understood.

Keep well
