hehe, that's nice to see a car in good hands (and yes, wet tarmac fits to that too Smile)

Also, overhere, an RHD car is cool, because no one has one, and overthere, LHD is cool, for the same reason probably Tongue

Can't we just swap cars, so everyone would be cool Cool

Cool car,,,
roundabouts, X-Roads, even a 3rd Gear sideways moment (not initiated by me).
All went well except for a bit of a traction issue when leaving my street Huh , which resulted in me passing my house backwards Confused much to the amusement to the Lithuania guys nextdoor, them diffs take a bit of getting used to. Big Grin Respect!

I see you're making some progress! Thumbs up!
Should have told me you were going to replace the interior. Otherwise we could have swapped seats with Mux. Wink
