Surf:- When I did the balancer repairs awhile ago and cleaned the air filter, I did take the OTR off and used my inspection camera to have a good look down the inside of the manifold, I found little to no oil at all, good sign. I did give the throttle butterfly a quick clean though. So all is good on that front.
I just have to wait until it arrives this week hopefully. Mid week because Monday is a P/H.
It's first service in my care is due November, so I'll start preparing for that if I have time to do it. Otherwise it's my local HSV dealer.
Regarding the plates Drawn, they were originally on the car but not included in the sale price. I really liked them and was going to buy them at a later date, but decided to get them sooner, kudos to the previous owner. The plates and car in general does get quite a lot of attention with the public, always asking what the plates mean so I have to spell it out to them. You'll be Sorry or You Will be Sorry.
The car is loud whether you drive it maturely or not. And the police, surprisingly have complimented on the car and plates numerous times. I've had no dramas whatsoever with the police.
I do plan on doing formals, weddings, graduations in it, as the previous owner did the same. I've already got duties for grad couples at the end of the year too!
