Hi Jim,

Yeah it'll be a tear jerker but I have to sensible..ish , I will look out for another cheap P6, 3500S would be good! I'll budget for about £1k, but I must sell this one first :(
I want it to go to a loving home, if the potential buyer has no garage then they cannot have it!

Yours is looking great, love the ali series 1 grill :)

Cheers Damian
