That's the only way to look at it TTFN. The man doing the job is a friend of ours, his mum went to school with Vera. He was a RAF vehicle mechanic. He left the RAF about 15 years ago and set up on his own, he now has about 7 or 8 people working for him. We are one of his first customers. The engine will be almost completely rebuilt when I get it back.
I'm just grateful it never let me down last year when I was going back and forth to two hospitals and the oncology unit in Cheltenham, sometimes at high speed, for Vera.
