Cheers Dan - I'll get the in cab vid off my camera in a minute.

Cheers Terry :lol: . No problem with air flow last summer (but then it was hardly hot!). I like the look of it more with the cover off.

(Nice photo Terry).

Cheers Rob - we had a really good time. Thoroughly enjoyed the drive across the moor. Really want another slightly-less-precious syncro for playing in! Fingers crossed about Cait's work. :roll:
