You always did have a way of amazing everyone in the middle of a conversation with some amazing trivia about almost any car. Reminds me of one of those meets where someone mentioned a car they had seen and you were able to tell him all the colours it had been painted in its lifetime!!

Congratulations once again!!

Cheers,

Suhail
And im sure he gave you the registeration number too.
He talks about cars that way.
When we discuss a certain car we may say "You know the blue and white Fiat..."
Karl would say " You know MRJ 9041..which was a factory Jonquil before it was painted a Sardine Brown, before it was painted a Desert Mist before it became Freeze Blue and Refrigerator White...." Just kidding Karl...what the..NO Im not kidding!!. You should be proud of this. Its a gift!!

Congratulations Karl!
