    Oooooh sounds nice. I always liked the look of those, but couldn't get over the price.

    The boxer engines take a bit of getting used to especially the rocking from side to side at tick-over and pulling away.

    Nice, you didn’t get it from the Greenock area of Scotland by any chance? A friend and industry contact had one of those that he said he had sold.

    Lots of good advice and support and you'll be made very welcome.
