Spotted early this arvo on Ipswich Rd near the Warrego Hwy turn-off. I was in the 1100S. Thanks for the smiles & waves!

The 1100S is going really well, my daily run-about now, nearly done 200 miles since getting on the road. The gearbox has had a hard life but will be ok if treated well.

The suspension is in really good nick and the ride beats any other car I've driven in ages.

Once I sorted the high-speed misfire (#1 lead measuring over 2 MegOhm!) the 1275 runs really well, keeps up with the traffic on the highway easily (despite the 4.1 diff!) , much to the surprise of some motorists :shock: :lol:

cheers

Jacob
