Nothing worse than that I've had to get a new car myself recently my last one fell apart .. Was really easy just jacked it up using tires to get it higher than axle stands and myself and the Mrs lifted it over although would be a bit easier with 2 blokes ha-ha I may have a look at yours there as well

Looks like you've been busy. Good luck with the move. Are you moving to place with more room for cars?

Have yet to figure out the "GAB" numbering system - able to determine assembly plant by chassis plate, BUT no idea about the other numbers, and what they refer to.

All info MUCH appreciated

Thanks
