This is it, second owner, waited 9 weeks for it to get the brakes done.
The dealer collected it today and took it back, information screen fault lights and a fair number of other issues, dealer has promised to fix them all.
It's a beauty, enjoy when you get the bits sorted

Had to pop to Peterborough today to see a car audio specialist about addressing the lack of a fader and adjusting the different volumes in Belle. He worked on an Aero 8 not that long ago and says he won’t rush nor use any electric tools near the car so he gets how precious the MOG is….he wasn’t v complimentary about the current speaker system…..but optimistic that he can fit something. I will report back if it happens/works.
The weather was perfect roof down weather. I may have got some looks because I was singing along to Sway by Dean Martin at the top of my voice as I drove through Stamford…
Unfortunately a 54 mile round trip ended up taking 105 miles. I may have taken a less than direct route coming home via local villages…
Absolute heaven…I was on such a high by the time I got home. Boy, I’d missed that sensation over the summer. It’s so good to have her back. I’m a vey lucky chap!

Had to top up the fuel. Approximately 5 miles there. Kept on getting lost coming back so took 30 miles to get back. Glorious weather and many smiles from passing cars as I discovered new lanes around Colsterworth//Buckminster/Wymondham area. Love it…. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/09/25/922167DD-C97C-424F-A72C-29BEC6BE6C48.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/09/25/4D4F17C1-66B4-4CC3-9ECA-5415CC7469D3.jpg) HB

I wonder of MMC will introduce a Plus Six manual now... New Toyota Supra manual driven
Sports cars with manual gearboxes are surprisingly rare these days, but you can now get the Supra with one. Does it make for a more interactive driving experience? https://www.whatcar.com/news/2022-t...l&utm_campaign=newsletter_24_09_2022

The Supra manual has all the electronic toys needed to keep you out of the hedge, backwards... Perhaps MMC will do the traction control stuff and offer the manual version....

I think it is welcome. The feeling of more control and the feeling of having caused it oneself when he flies off into the ditch. I'm sure it will be a great driving experience, seriously.
