Well, I had a conversation with the gentleman concerned, and he informed me that the reserve was set at £400, and that if he didn't get that for it he would repair it and keep it as a second car.
Looks like I'm still looking then...
And yes, my Avatar does look rather like the T'Pau lass (was it Carol Decker, or perhaps Karen?) but I suspect it is a girl who just looks rather like her.

The GS will ride again, and I agree, they are fabulous! However I wouldn't use it as an everyday car with my current profession (forensic social worker, the GS is rather too conspicuous and precious, always a risk of your car getting a good kicking if one of your clients goes off you).
As far as XM's go, it would have to be Diesel, and series 1/1.5, SED preferred but anything considered...

Well, andrew, shes looking rather sad really... I should gove the LPG a good overhaul, but Ive no idea how to just yet.. Shes running rich on gas, and on lowest settings
She also needs work on the rear roll bar to arm bolts, they've loosened off and causing a VERY ANNOYING rattle on the rear!!
She also needs a good re spray, which I also dont have time for now
