Default On the Road


On the truck in Moorabbin - 1052 kms (approx. 660 miles) to go. That is if they come straight here with no deviations


another angle and still 1052 kilometres to go

+1.
If it was the least bit drivable I'd have driven it home as part of the bonding process.
Although on the other hand, I'm quite accustomed to seeing an Xj6 chained to a flatbed.

Beautiful car either way.

Never have needed the services of a flatbed (touches wood). I had a gearbox fail in my previous XJ6 but it still brought me home under its own power.
