Hi all.

Newbie here in Manchester.

Been browsing the forum for a while now. Having read quite a bit on the Gtr, Just part exchanged the old Bmw boxer for a new to me Gtr 2010 in black. Had the boxer for the past eight years. Hope the Gtr serves me as well. Got to say at i'm loving it forgot just how smooth an in line 4 was.
Looking forward to some long continental trips on her.

Thanx for the welcome guys.

I'm sure there are loads of tips and good advice from you all if required.  In response to Kwakatlast's question. About 4 miles from Eccles mate just off junction 16 M60.
