He didn't like the noise anyway so would've brought that one back. You should see the list of things UK has that will be swapped between his 2 cars!

I see the "L" plate was already fitted before he even got out of the driveway - hope you made him earn his wheels by chauffering you home....

Power aerial - yes it should work, but no it doesn't. One of those things I never got around to - it just needs a new mast; they're about $20 from Autobarn etc, and the part number is Aerpro AP12.
