    Clearplex

    Just an FYI, a couple of cars here in Houston ended up with cracked windscreens when they applied the clearplex. "Gorilla glass? That's just what we call it Sir, it's actually a lot more fragile than regular glass."

    Seeking BJ auction advice

    No BJ auction experience, but I sold my Merlin-engined Rolls through Bonhams at Amelia a few years ago. Totally painless experience, very professional, negotiable fees and instant post-sale fund transfer, I'd use them again in a heartbeat.

    Fuel filter, brake fluid and power steering fluid

    "Cluch pedal to the floor scenario" is instantly fixed by installing a trannsaxle cooler. From memory, doesn't the manual say change all fluids every 30,000 miles?
