Due to lack of space and time to continue work on this car I have decided that sadly its time for Ray le otter to move on.

So far she has laid up in my garage with the purple 460 for a few years, while I went through divorce proceedings. Now that that is over I have moved up to Lowestoft to get away and moved her up with me, recently I have been doing some of the work yardy has not managed to get done himself.

She has now got:
- a new exhaust
- Solved the hot start issue
- New fuel pump
- New aerial
- Rewired the radio (front and back speakers where the wrong way round)
- tweaked the idle for the richmod ecu I believe she has
- fitted half leather seats
- very plush carpet washed and cleaned
- LEDs sourced and fitted to clocks

Things I know she needs:
- speedo sometimes works or dosent, might be a loose connection with either the clocks or the speed sensor needs replacing
- the LED for the digital display is intermittent, I will try and fix when I have time, may solve the speedo issue?
- passenger door lock barrel needs replacing
- washer jet nozzle stall on the passenger side needs replacing
- rear exhaust bracket where it doglegs over the rear axle
- rear arches are in very good condition for the usual but rusty still, spare set in boot
- without putting her through an MOT I don't know what other issues she has
- sunroof leaks a little, I suspect seals or it is not stopping in the right position as pushing it upwards in the shut position stops water leaks

In the sale:
- braided stainless Steel brake hoses
- lowering kit, shocks and springs
- manual gearbox
- manual pedal box with clutch cable
- volvo turbo bodykit
- 2 850 fog lights, which apparently fit.
- Ronal R10 turbos

Her features:
- she is good looking for her age
- some dimples in her bonnet and boot where vandals have ran and jumped on her, but roof is good
- shopping trolley dings
- her bonnet sometimes sticks
- ronals need slight refurbishment, not through rash but through age.
- audi BoV fitted by previous.
- I have tried to find and correct poor wiring where I have found it
- k&n airfilter

Questions welcome. Pictures will be linked in following post (if that's allowed)
