Yes Please!
Hopefully if you go to the DS rally too at the end of the month, then I would love to see what a ES9 is like then. I haven't had a close look at your car Jim. I just didn't get round to it at the X rally.

Russ, hopefully, if all plans go accordingly, you will be able to take both my XM and Activa out for a spin...
I may even try to get my V6 Xantia there as well...

Looks great Matthew. Gotta love the cover design! Hope it all goes back in okay and starts and runs smoothly.
Just got to sort the gearbox out now I assume.

It has been about nine months since my last post, but I am now pleased to report that the autobox has now been professionally rebuilt and was successfully re-attached to the engine last weekend with various other ancillaries. I hope to find some time to reinstall the lump later this week and given a bit of good luck I might well have her running by the Easter hols!! With regards, Matthew T.

Fantastic news Matthew, bet your itching to get it finished. I know I would be! What was wrong with the gearbox in the end?
Looks incredibly clean and shiny.
