Sounds like an offer not to miss...


Just like Andy giving me the SED as he was selling his other one because he didn't have any space to store them all... :D

Neither of mine were working when I got them...blood, sweat and tears, I tell you...(and a burned hand, now)


If I had won that SED, one would be going.

Excellent Andy... Well done for saving it. :D I thought though you were short on space for another XM. ;) :lol:

Hi all.. So in response to questions.. Yes I can only have one car which means sparky my trusty 2.1 SD auto must go.. Fate unknown at present, but currently has a water leak and has done around 250,000.. I'm thinking head gasket soon too...

So I managed to get the car on the trailer without too much bother.. Removed the scuttle and oiled the pivot as suggested and... Bingo! Worked a treat..
Minor problem.. There are no working electrics in the car..
No electric windows
No climate control
No dash lights or interior lights
No radio
But exterior lights function as normal...
Bizarre.

Anyways.. Here starts the beginning of refurb. I've already switched my tyres and the brakes and discs are going to need replacing too..
Can't wait to get her up and road worthy again..
Pictures to follow
Happy new year everyone
Best wishes
Andy
