Thanks for posting this.

Very entertaining read.

Looking forward to the full scan.

That’s a very good read - really gives an insight as to how the 750 and 500 were compared back then.

Interesting report Ash.

Obviously a chap of considerable wealth and worldly experience to reference "Avocado pear" in 1972  ;D

I do like the exhaust note description too "It's a smooth sound that conjures dark velvet in the mind" I like exhausts of such quality  :)
