M J . That is a nice sounding Y. Do you have a different transmission in it as I did not see any shifting?

Thanks for posting that! It is my Y and it is standard but I also think it runs nice.

HI Malcolm

I was nearly terminally shocked, thinking it was your car on the road! Seriously, how's it all going, will you be over to Ripon this year (with/without the car)?

I've just sent Paul a selection of photos of the Y pickup/crane/fruit truck which is in the Netherlands in the hope that they'll be put on the site ...

Take care, Andrew

Willem.
Thank you for that info. It just looked too smooth with both hands on the wheel. Like the pooch also.

Be great to see your Y on the road Mal. We southerners have heard about it and seen pics and that there was just a little to finish off. Just make sure the fuel in the tank has not gone off after all this time. You could also add some kerosene to the valuable petrol - there have been a series of articles in the Bulletin about just the topic and how to be street legal.

I'm sure that Andrew and Arlene will welcome you with their excellent hospitality. Perhaps if it is the Y you will treat website users to a short video experience!

Sincerely

Jerry
