Yes, never has a man owned a Mk I that burned more oil! :rotflmmfao: Having followed him to eastern Germany, I've never shown the slightest sign of any rust since!!! The really impressive thing was Charlie rode on to Greece from Germany and back to the UK again. RIP Charlie.

Shame, sounds like a decent guy. Being in my 60's well 62 it all seems a bit too close.
We all need to keep doing the things we enjoy for as long as we can
