I agree with you on Cliff, great research and tech threads as I'm sure everyone would agree...

Always enjoy your contributions....

Sent you a PM.....
We can't even use the word "substitute" for a real Philly Steak and not sure I have ever had a real one.

Once I retire and no longer have benefits under the Status of Force Agreement (SOFA) to register and pay lower taxes, I'm not sure I want to pay through my nose for what will be a 30 year old car by then. The road taxes here are based on cc of the engine size so it will get ridiculous to continue owning a V8 as well as the additional tax for the age. Right now it would be $1,000 a year just for road tax. Not counting the inspection and registration. In addition, I'm not going to screw with all the idiosyncracies of this car in old age. By then I might have to just junk the car as C4s have no real value here. I'll enjoy it for now though and love it.

That is why Cliff is "Dynomite"!

Thanks for your thoughts and keep up the great work.
