Thanks to everyone - First pickings to Andy as he asked first!
Matthew, your 24V sounds great BTW
I also have a collection of old spheres, some of which may be good enough to benefit from the attentions of your re-gassing kit - maybe at another rally sometime. You'd be welcome to them.
Kind regards,
Tom
Only very early cars had Red badges on the steering wheel.
If anyone has duff spheres, I may have a use for them.

Matthew - the car has been fantastic this summer, a real joy and I feel i have bonded with it quite well!
That is good news Andy and I was sorry to hear you still have a few issues including odd behaviour of the suspension. Incedently, I did help the last owner to replace the spheres about two years ago!

Thanks for your comments Tom and kind offer of the spare spheres, which I suggest might be brought to the next rally! I also very much admired your car and especially the unusual colour.
In relation to the steering wheels may I suggest that I pass mine on to Andy and Russ (if willing) could sell his to Tom?
With regards,

Sure. I don't mind. I expect if Tom is worried about the badges, he could swap it for the black one in his twin spoke.
The badge on my single spoker is red.
I'll give Tom first refusal. But I doubt it will be off of the car for a while as I have other priorities first.

Not at all an issue with the suspension Matthew, it's very interesting and giving me plenty of opportunity to learn more about the car!
Many thanks for the offer of the steering wheel,i'll send you a text and perhaps we can get something sorted
) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.
