<VV> Awl

[Alan and Clare Wesson]

Mine has always been serviced by me or friends, has always lived outside (it 
has literally NEVER been garaged in the 21 years of its life), lived in a 
high-salt area for the first 15 years of its life (although I used to wash 
the salt off a lot!), and has always done a lot of short, stop-start 
journeys in hilly terrain.

Cheers

Alan
