    Since 2014 and it's done a LOT of kms

    Been to ADL, MEL, SYD, TAS, 6xGG and many times around the Scenic Rim

    Scariest trip was to Coonabarabaran for a GG, was pissing down and a LOT of standing water kept moving the car all over the place but mostly towards double-Bs coming the other way ............ the usual story for low, light cars with lots of HP and WIDE tyres .... the HP delivery you can control but wide tyres are out of your control

    I had it on a flat top twice, once was after a major service which wasn't it's fault and the other was when the accelerator cable broke the other week

    Yikes! Well I hope you get more than 50’000 klms out of the engine, probably one of the most enjoyed 355 challenges out there

    So were they all built badly from the factory or is it just a given that 355 motors are beautiful albeit fragile artworks that predictably blow up at precisely 51,379 klms .

    That much again. It's got re 56,000km now.
    I've done more in it than all the previous owners put together.
    But it's still only averaged 2400km / year.
