    Leather Care... AutoGlym vs Duragloss

    Yes - K-Motronic with R-R tweaks. I had the fuel head rebuilt by Bosch in 2007 and the result is a very smooth motor with idle better than most Spirits.

    We pay 47.7 cents per litre excise on petrol and diesel and this tax is supposed to maintain and improve the roads. It would be unfair if EV owners did not pay the same.
