Thats ok mate, i wont hold it against you. I heard the road was a bit slippery near the roundabout when you took the cobra out! Must have been oil or something! (Ha Ha).

Don't forget the 360's are done outside the factory when leaving!



Your out and I'm in. Doug phonned today and my Cobra goes in next for paint.



It was conditional. I do not leave doing 360's out the front.



Cheers

Bernie.
