That looks right. Apparently it only survived a bit over 10 years.

Whereas my old Volvo S70 T5R seems to be SORNed at over 120,000 miles

Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni - Google's description is about right.



Very grand, huge rooms, but a bit old-fashioned.



Other side of the lake from Hammond.



For a couple of days while we were there, they had a gathering of Belgian Maserati (sorry, no pic of that), which confirmed my need to have a QPV.

That brings back memories. My wife had a red one back on about 1997. She bought it from an old lady who only drive it around 2 miles a week. My Dad then bought it off her and drove it until it died.

Love a Riva boat! Priced one up 8 years ago while in Lake Garda for a laugh; €372,000. But they are hand crafted, like works of art.

Lovely, years ago we drove down and stayed in the Grand Hotel Menaggio and at first I thought that was what you were photographing as they all look the bloody same from the water. Your hotel is a tad nicer mind!

 

[Wack61]

I'm sure I got the right day

 

[alfatwo]

Yea, and everyone in London had there photo taken just in case, there's no hiding
All the fare dodge's, housing benefit stankers, etc

New daily driver - I do love my Jags, this will be my 6th XJ nothing else in the market ticks as many boxes for me.

The plate is going begging if it’s of use to anyone.
