Makes my little front cross-member rust problem seem a tiny triviality, really.
On the subject of loaning out cars, my beloved uncle is due in from his overseas home on December 7th, and I'm handing the 75 over to him for a trip to Dunedin to see his daughter (my only first cousin) graduate. Is thise wise? My 75 has been perfectly reliable up until now, and furthermore I've just remembered that way back in 1983, a loan of it to this same uncle spelled the end of the family Jaguar 240's useful life.
