I polish it with a red rouge cloth and buff with a micro fibre.

Only if we drive to lunch in GT-R Godzilla ........ and I drive !!!

Hey Oom,the chances of finding an "orange bazooka lightning second hand" in a ADs window is much more than finding a 111 in the window.Here,the 111s dont even reach the display.They are all pre-booked.The secondary markets pricing also proves my point on Millie

Don't really count the number of turns... I'm just enjoying doing it and seeing the power indicator going up slowly hehe...

I think I'm leaning to the 233. I would like to get a preowned one. Any recommendations as to where I should look other than ebay? I checked the p. com website but not much activity on the 233. Ebay has a few of them listed.
