James, Neil photoshopped that dirt onto the car! See photos below to show how clean it is! Also featuring my previous S8, now in the loving care of my mate David.

Yeh, a good day and a good route. I had no idea where we'd been until I looked at a map when I got home.

I can't wait to see all three of your cars and ex cars in the one pic Jim - I trust you will have "de-photoshopped" the current one by then. Lol.

I knew Ian would spot that - and I told Neil a wee fib - they're only 18" replicas, on for the season while the 20" FE ones are refurbed by Pristine - and if I'd know it was going to be dropping by to say hello, I would have put the centre caps back on for the photos

think it was so cold we all wanted to get into the cars to get warm, its this one gog

http://www.connects2.co.uk/Instructions/USB_OEM.pdf

I just use it to play MP3 via an SD card, its not very sophisticated but works fine and sounds as good as the CD, it also still allows use of the CD changer if i want, but as you have the RNS-E with SD slots not sure its what you want, I bought mine from Adrian on here as he wasnt happy using it with his RNS-E, as I say depends what you want to achieve I guess

cheers
