fantastic; though 5 seconds after going off-road you ain't going to be able to see out of the side-windows

Wondered how long it would take - spoke to Steve (Red convertible) a while back now when you first thought about it.
Loving the Fessy - it was my screen saver for a while, snapped it at the Roundhills WA, also see it everyday at
Lea Rd
Well done on this project - bit bigger than "Little Foot" but i'm sure you'll end up with with smiles per miles.
