After owning and modifying it for 18 years, I finally decided to let my 2001 TD42T converted GU go to someone will use it more than me.
It has been replaced by a 2023 Y62 Ti-L which is probably more suited to my 80 year old driving style.
Couple of pics of old & new. Quality of pics was better but had to shrink them down for the forum.

Hi John,
Congrats on the upgrade, may it serve you many, many years.
Noice choice. I've been in TPCs 62 and it had awesome power and torque.
Very nice upgrade! I'm sure it will be a delight to drive. Congratulations [emoji106]
It’s a bit intimidating when you approach it from the front. It’s a totally different car to drive to the GU although I’ve only driven it for about an hour since picking it up on Friday.
I have to start taking the rear apart shortly to fit a towbar.
Welcome to the 62 club.
They are stunning to drive ay.
Best analogy I’ve heard is it’s a v8 powered lounge chair…
So true!!

Congratulations John. Can imagine how happy is the new GU owner as well.
What is the shield picture on the right of the license plate? The one on the left is your homeland for sure, just couldn't identify the other.
The red shield with the white cross is the Swiss flag and the shield on the left side is the coat of arms of Geneva. My wife and kids are swiss and we lived in Geneva for over 20 years.Quote:

All the swiss number plates have the flag on one side and the coat of arms of the particular canton where the car is registered.
My wife's Kia has them as well.

I have had mine for almost 2 years and still get excited every time I drive it.
