I am happy to report that the 960 made the 12+ hour run to Hopkinsville, Ky and back with no problems. There was about 1/2 quart of oil consumed on the way up but none on the way back. My wife did not try for optimum gas mileage so the speed ranged from below fifty to above eighty. Still the gas mileage was close to 27 mpg.

Since this car has never been on the highway, only used for around town trips, I expected more problems. The fuel rail repair held up nicely, and the moon roof only had a small drip during a 3 day storm in Kentucky.

I appreciate all of the advice an this car.

Regards,
