    Not a bad daily transport :) Good to hear your pretty much problem free!
    My belts have just been done, so I'm safe for another 3 years. Tyres are due and I'm in the middle of a kitchen reno :rolleyes:
    I've been toying with selling mine but recently I've been looking at some decent manual conversions so I don't know ;)

    I’ve thought of selling occasionally but then it sinks in that I’d be lucky to get $120k and what would I do with that, buy a watch ? Soo I’ll just keep it, it’s reliable very good looking and quite nippy transport:)

    Past, Present and Emerging was one of favorite tracks! Especially live at the M.C.G. just ask Rob, it got people out of their seats.

    Took a wrong turn up in the mountains on Naxos and drove down what must be their version of the Stelvio - would have got a photo but there was nowhere to pull up and the wife was hanging on for grim death as there seemed to be a local lunatic trying to kill us at every blind corner!

    Also, is it just me, or has Mykonos turned into a **** hole? I haven't been there for probably close on 50 years. I took the wife over for lunch on the spur of the moment and couldn't wait to leave. I guess I should have done some research..

    That’s standard driving behaviour in Greece!

    Mykonos is a definite AVOID, full of Instagrammers/Influencers and ridiculously expensive. I would avoid Santorini too.

    I looked at flights from Mackay to Athens last night at work to fly myself, Nicole and the kids in July 2026................$15,800 return with Qantas. :(:(

    Looks like we aren't going anywhere.

    That’s cheap at $3k each FFS. Do it. Create memories with your children. They’ll be adults and want to do their own thing before you know it
