Re: She's Dead Jim

On the positive side today I was told of a friend who's 9 year old Toyota Corolla with a traditional auto that developed some type of problem. Not sure what the problem was but it was significant enough to offload the car. Thats a Toyota with a traditional auto.

They look nice in white. I take it you went via the great ocean road. Did that drive a couple of years back in my Prestige and enjoyed it so much. Just wish there wasn't so much traffic so I could push harder.
