Maybe I'll have become too old for the K13 power and performance by the time it needs replacing.

When that happens to me, my next "vehicle" will be made from oak, with a silk lining and brass handles!   ;)
You do mean the brass effect plastic handles? Don't ask me how I know.

You were the James Bond stunt double in Diamonds Are Forever?

I was working at the crematorium on a car for a customer who worked there and he gave me a behind the scenes tour. Most of a coffin is combustable hence the handles are plastic and not brass.
As I have grown older, I've learned that pleasing everybody is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.
