G'day Bob,
Thanks for the comment on my staff-car interview. The old girl has seen a lot of the world and a lot of action in her life. She suffered, like many others, from fuel vaporisation this year. I was towed up Mt.Hotham, over the Great Divide, by a Toyota Prado, after suffering fuel vaporisation and then a "cooked" started motor, on the way home from Corowa. (33 kilometers and 264 corners.) The trip was the most economical I have ever had. The brakes got a bit warm slowing the Prado, Chev and loaded trailer on the down hill parts. Since Corowa, we've travelled a further 700 km. So you can see she gets used.
Regards Rick
