Rolled the odometer over 100,000 miles; forgot to take a photo of it at 99,999 - I'll have to remember for 111,111 ;D

Also discovered how odd a sensation it is when you run out of grip with suspension as soft as an Elite, it feels like the whole car 'sits up' and levels off mid corner..

[edit] Oh and speaking of inferior FL interiors, the back of the drivers seat fell off. Again.

Yup, that's what I find.. not that I can see it this time - perhaps I should put it back in with a screwdriver though, rather than my fingers.. ;D

With some "helping - mostly unhelping"   :D of my 2,5 year old daughter I managed to give them back their shine.           
 
Final result
 
by using water sand paper and this
