Markus, she's up on axle stands in the garage at the moment, so I can have a good inspect and replace/service parts as needed, I think we'll have 6-8 weeks of bad weather and that should give me long enough to work through my project list so she's ready for the Nurburgring trip.
Thanks for all your comments and the warm welcome
Mark
