At least once the Russians take over and rename the Ukraine people won't get us confused any more.

That was bloody cheap. I think I paid about £150 to get one replaced on my old 95. It was also 5p cheaper to get it fitted than buy one to do myself...

Update

Roof leaks from the clips at front. Good job it's not raining ..

Ah.

Gearbox oil level checked and topped up- smoother changes.
Filter and fluid on horizon.

Service parts ordered.

Hood cleaner on way.

Parking brake on list. At top, to be honest.

Air leak from back of plenum attended to. Temporarily with cable ties.

Idle speed still too high.

Oh, and random Engine Check on. When it suits.
