Can't add much too what Inc has posted other than the County had a little moment in the main street. Backing out of a park, it failed to proceed so wound it back in on the starter. With a bit of help from the local RACQ, we found the rotor button needed a bit of a clean and we are all good. On a side note, the RACQ bloke is a Scottish gent that did some time with TVR and has a very good working knowledge of the little bent 8. [smilebigeye].

Over a relaxing coffee on Sunday morning we caught up with a local Landy nut, s3109lr. He (Steve) has a S3 hardtop project (and a few spares [bigwhistle]).

I kept a tally of fuel and Kms for the trip and from Bundy to Brissy, Brissy to Stanthorpe and then back home to Bundy, the County (88 V8 5 speed running 238/85-16) got 14.85 Lts/100Kms.

Thanks to all that attended, quite a relaxing and enjoyable llooonngg weekend.
