Hi Paul - hard to believe three years have passed since that sad day but great to hear it's all worked out really well! When the time comes I'll also have TK set mine up for the next 40 years..
Is that an E63 wagon sharing space with the 930?

Hey Richard - great to hear from you again... thanks! Great plan for you there. And, heh... sadly nope... that's wutzherface's GL450, tho I see you rock the e63 estate there. TIIIIITZ!

Great to hear success stories like that.
Now don't go breaking it. It wasn't called the Widowmaker for nothing. That stuff wasn't made up.
Kudos to TK. Again.
