If we have got the GTP back by then we'll be in (but every time I get it back it goes back in the work shop) this time is the last one before asking for a new GTP :

You're a very patient man.

It's obviously written off (if it keeps having problems), demand nothing less than a new one, and remuneration for the months of being f'ed around.

In my peripheral vision while driving home from Fairbairn yesterday, I thought I saw coming toward me, an Orange Striped Silver GT........could it be? Do you finally have it back?

HI Guys, sorry for the late reply Just got back from China, the GTP was due back Monday (aust-Day) still waiting, the good news is that the whole front has now been replaced grills every thing so we'll wait and see! I tell you that if it is no 100% I am going to jam it in a very tight hole and have the plates transfered to a new GTP or push Brian and Annmaries suggestion. :jab:

Missed opportunity to step up into a turbo powered machine. Owning a Botox machine (show pony) is like running a 'T' on 4 cylinders. That said, hopefully the nightmare is over for you. :
