Get ready for 2nd generation of SS-four..., 4x4=205 ;) Options

[malpaso]

At last I can fully share with news... After my project failed I tried to figure out what would be the best with remaining budged. I talked to many friends and all said the same: "Buy ST205... you can not regret". So I made few messages and planned 1000miles trip

It started at Friday 14:50 with airborne


the same day after few hours in London's airport...


...at last boring part of trip ended in Manchester . I have met bodhi and his GT-four at the airport...


He took me to pick up my new baby . Yes... that white one GT-four below...


It's pure almost stock JDM model with all Japan market goodies I have always wanted to have in my car






First night as fresh GT-four owner (and after first few miles with RHD car I took a rest in bodhi's house. Thank you so much again for your help mate!)


Saturday morning 7:30... just quick inspection before long ride home...


Even in RHD car in the UK I was still on the right side of the road .


After 350 miles (about) I took the rest on ferry... pretty new experience as well.


Saturday 15:14... Good bye England.


So weird feeling... I definitely do not like traveling by boat (with car )


At last "solid ground". Damn long 90 minutes . Welcome France...


...and still the same side of road .


Sunday morning 9:15 I have left France to Belgium, than Netherlands and finally... Autobahn! No-speed-limit highway in Germany


First chance to test if limiter really has been removed (during gauge conversion to miles) JDM 180km max speed is boring right? .


Car runs unbelievably... but it costs something (I hate German highway... You would not believe how much fuel it can take when driving fast)


Sunday afternoon 18:00 at last first sign I'm close to Czech Republic again...


Sunday evening 20:00... After today's 600miles I got home... (Only here you can meet harvester between cars on road )


My trip is over but all fun still has not began . 2nd gen of SS-four needs some time and work

How do the UK guys work out their proper milage? Like, A large portion of that 139XXX would have ticked over in kilometers in japan, and then with the speedo correcter that would start ticking over at rate 1.6x slower? Do they just ignore the big number and just approximate the real answer if someone asks?
