Too old now ......

The 360 , not me

Tbh , they where to old late last year .
I might visit the 430 market in a couple of months though

But to be honest the 991 and 981 have my attention at the moment .

In all honesty, I tend to agree with you on the issue of age regarding the 360. In addition to the already expensive costs associated with upkeep and maintenance, most 360's have reached the age where one thing after the next will either need fixing or replacing. That would be enough to make anyone crazy !

p.s. Drove one of these for a bit last summer. Quite a machine indeed !
