if the motor goes, it goes. In the meantime, I look forward to enjoying the ride and receiving the 500K kilometer mileage award within the next four years or so. Hope you're still around......Jimmy.

Hey, I'm pulling for you Ched! Promise.
And your ride is 100x nicer than mine, I would just be living in constant fear. I can't afford one of those cars, and if I scraped it together, then I certainly couldn't pay for the repair if ever needed.
I'm just a low-budget W123 guy..............
