    Too right, the green one doesn't even have power steering and wind up windows, its even 14" shorter. Totally different

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    I believe it's also had a heart transplant from a younger beast.



    A bit like my old axe that's had a few new heads and numerous new handles .................................................. ...... but it's still a good original old axe.

    A very nice pair though Mark and good to sknow that their not just show ponys and both of them get used regularly.
