Me,
I would rather have the residence.
Without having to pay for it though.
Cheers

Re: The one to have

I'm very impressed and fully agree that machine got class, both old and new one. He doesn't do things by half measures thats for sure.

Great pics too thanks.

Regards,

Mike

white swb is 1 G290TD, thats howards, and the other merc is one of the daughters of Tony i believe. New wab took 5 days a week and 18 months, cost ? would be rude to ask.
