Finally, the Ring
 
1 Attachment(s)
After a few years of ownership, I finally got to the Ring last Thursday eve.

Over 6 days I added 2,700 miles to the odometer and the car didn't miss a beat from sea level to 8,000 feet on the Furka Pass. A minor "misjudgement" with some sand in Antibes and a moment with a now deceased red squirrel in the Black Forest were the only mishaps. Wasn't a lucky day for the squirrel, it was in the claws of a large hawk at the moment of impact. The hawk seemed to survive as did my front end.

As Clarkson said . . . "What a car"

Sounds like you are getting the most from your car Rick :notworthy:

Also sounds like you did the squirrel a good deed by knocking it on the head.
