Re: What have you tinkered with today?

Re: What have you tinkered with today?

Re: What have you tinkered with today?

Re: What have you tinkered with today?

Re: What have you tinkered with today?

Our grand scenic is the same engine I think but in 106bhp form, a bit gutless with two adults, two grown up kids and a 10 and 5 year old. Efficiency is the winner though as fully loaded to Cornwall...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
