On the way out of a brunch Resteraunt this past weekend - couple was walking past the door to “look at this beautiful smokey grey car” ... I said that’s our car - it’s from 1999.

They said we own the same car from 1991. Sure enough they did . They said they had owned it for just 2 years.

Ours 246,000 Km (we have owned near 17 years) theirs 25,000 Km ... they were interested in how our wind blocker attached to the roll bar.

I could not leave the parking lot without pulling in beside to take a few family pictures.

It was nice to review the styling que changes from over the years - in person.
