Hello, all

Well, it's now official (as of last Friday, anyway). Two years ago, I was fortunate to have a Marauder for about 6-months as a demo, before it got sold.

Last week, I finally took possession of a 2003 Marauder with just under 19,000km (yes, Canadian metric, which equates to about 11,000miles). The previous owner took immaculate care of the car, and I have to commend him for that. There isn't a mark on it, and it could literally be put into a new-car showroom.

As unfortunate as it may be, however, this will be a daily driver for me, and I've already put 2,000km (I do almost 600km weekly on average), so it's going to add up quick. Up here, I've put on a set of Gislaved snows (215/65x16 front at 225/70x16 rear on black steelies) and have no trouble negotiating the winter snow we've been piled up with. I'm anxiously waiting to see spring and get the summer 18's on.

I don't have to worry about one of my cohorts selling this one on me, as I've purchased it outright for myself - this one's a keeper. Finally!

Well, when I had the demo 2 years ago, I was in pretty frequently. When it got sold, it just didn't feel the same, so I've been away til now. Hope to post more often being a proper member with a ride now.

Sounds like a plan. I take it you're at Formula? I'm at Donway. Have to mention that in the fall, I saw a black MM parked in a lot at Thickson & Hwy2 (King St) where the A&P and TD/Canada Trust bank is. Usually 7:45-8am? Never had a chance to stop, and now that I have mine, never seen it there again (Maybe the owner parked it for the winter?)

Nope, I live near East Court about two minutes away on Huntingwood and Brimley. BTW you have a reply back to your e-mail.
