Used the post's Car Hobby Shop to give it a bath (car wash limited to car wash facilities only - still can't get over that!) and an oil change with Motul 5W-40. With the drive on lift, 29 minutes start to finish...extremely nice option. Too quick to even get an image...
Following day...success! $60 got all four OEM tires replaced/installed. Quite a bargain assuming they run true. An extra 20 Euro will do wonders for care and understanding...
Quick trip down the autobahn (100 click limit), filled up the car with post gas...:
Almost exactly half the cost of off post fuel...although off post you can get the 100 octane (~94 octane) Optimax fun juice:
Re-inspection is Monday...very difficult not to take advantage of the Ring open day tomorrow...unique as the F1 Track is also open and is a rarity...believe one could lap the entire 25 KM circuit! But concerned about tire wear precluding my inspection...so will stand down. Next weekend it is game on for another go...
