    Talking Trip to Harlow

    And trip to Harlow today, managed to get there ok despite some old duffer pulling out of junction when i was right on top of it despite him looking my way he clearly didnt see me, Lucky enough was only doing about 40 mph. Abs worked a treat.

    Took some pic's in the multi story

    Probably has but you haven't found it

    She doesn't understand Although perhaps she felt you should have been taking pictures of her instead of the car for the kids on mothers day.. lol

    Not many ppl love their car and care for them so they won`t understand it.It take a lot of hard work to bring a car to that showroom shine as Merc`s one which is not for everyones ability.
