great analogy. [or is it "analoguey" in UK speak?]
when i bought my m400 it had actually been stuck in a garage for years,
and it "drove" quite badly. a little time and effort was all it took to
bring it back and "Drive" well again.
one positive thing about this type of neglect however:
it lets those of us that are in the know pick them up for a song when the
owner thinks it's just a piece of junk ;0)
