Sorry chaps, I have been going on about it too much. I'll give the BH obsession a rest (a rust?!) for a bit.

It's not the advertising K9F, it's practical first hand experience over the last eight years. Up until 2006, I used Waxoyl.

I'll try to calm down a bit, but I hate to see people wasting their money ...

I'm glad it's not just me that collects model Land Rovers, but I hadn't spotted that one so far. Thanks very much.
