Chris was desperate to change the oil now that the rebuilt engine has done 1000 miles. He had been trying to find a suitable place to do it, and to dispose of the old oil, but with the whirlwind of hospitality it proved impossible! So he and Ilya stopped at a garage on the outskirts of Moscow to enlist their help.
As we are coming to realise, Russians have a great interest in the car and the challenge – the mechanics changed the engine and gearbox oil, and when the head office of the franchise heard about us refused to take any payment and also offered support in the future.
