good on yah. I did the moon shot mileage on the 2002 R75 which is languishing as a donor car at the moment. Bought it when it was a demonstrater when I set up on my own; 200,000 miles at 45 p per mile that the tax man allows for the 1st 10,000 per year means that it paid what I sepent on it a few times over. Not too much robbed and as full retirement comes crowding in think that the donor bits could be sourced and the cills done. Need to practice my mig/tig skills. I see that cill sections can be sourced from Poland??? Saves having to invest in sheet metal forming manual folder etc.
