Hi Craig,
Your video clip is very cool 8) but I would like to see info on speed, throttle opening, revs, brakes and selected gear when you are on the mountain. You know, one of those flash digital images the big boys use. As an alternative, could you perhaps hold up carboard cards in front of the camera? :lol: :lol: !

What cam do you have and are left park wipers correct for an Aussie Min?

Um.. Morris, you dyslexic are....
They parked on RH side of car until 68, then changed to the LH. After the change, the UK type wiper shaft escutcheons wouldn't bloody fit... :lol: :cry:
