Doug, I reckon the battery gave out in protest over all that gizmo stuff you techie types hang from the windscreen. Those were the days when we just had a gear stick and steering wheel to play with.
And you put a Porsche through a car wash?...

No choice but to give it a go, although maybe just suds it up in this weather and let Lusi clean it.

I was going to talk to you about your warranty. Didn't you tell me she had a new battery?? :P Heh.

Yeah I was a bit worried about the car wash. She was filthy and there wasn't much in the way of options in central Wellington. I blame John

Hey, don't follow my lead. I don't have paintwork worth protecting. That said they both look good in the hotel entrance

Yes, they sound no where near as good. And the Martini liveries do look awesome!

No update from Macca's group? Hopefully not in a prison cell with Boris, the Russian tranny...

I think Doug that you have operated said vehicle outside the terms of my kerbside warranty, not least beach driving, car washes, track work, unauthorised windscreen gadgets, gravel roads, bothering the redline, sustained loss of traction, driven it in the rain, parked it outside at night, ventured south of the bombay's and stuff I'm glad I haven't even seen you do to the poor old girl. Heck, you've probably even three wheeled it around some of those corners!

Very nice, look forward to seeing it in the real. RSG needs more of these. Which one of you pinched the clock?
