Squillion pound ? Would you buy a Ferrari and expect to service it at Halfords? If that's your philosophy on life good luck

Worry not MBK, any O****** vs Shaft debate on here is usually tongue in cheek .
Normally starts as we shaft boat owners cruise past and comment about boat ashore with two gaping holes in the transom or if they are really lucky merely a missing leg,away at the menders being mended again.
