Goodbye old friend :( Titine is dead!
« on: May 18, 2018, 15:53:03 PM »
Well, it had to happen eventually.... After 8 years of brilliant services, my car broke down on the side of the road.
Way fixable (transmission shaft on the right), but I think it's time to say goodbye!  :'(

Best car I ever owned. Loads of room, low diesel consumption.. The ideal modeler's car!  8)

I hope the next one will be half as good!

Fred - Car less for now  :'( :'(

Try not to run out of airspeed, altitude and ideas....... all at the same time.

Hi Keith,

270000 km, so pretty much nothing for these cars  :-*

The mechanic wants me to fix it as they are the best engines ever, but time to move on, with regrets I must say, love that car  :'(

Indeed! Many many miles to go flying with it  :'(
Wasserkuppe, Italy, France, Spain for a few :(

But, new Titine is nice :) Air conditioning, and can get a massage while heading to the slope :)

Still haven't put a big glider in it, so she still need to be put to the test!  ::)
