Hey mate, something has come up, I've discovered a long distance lorry driver who may be able to get me the seats, how far are you from Manchester? Also, would you be able to meet him at one of the services near you / him?

If the main section of the dash was in good condition I may be interested in that too?? Mine has started to split

Default Need plastic door panel/trim...

Hi, as a newbie I hope I am right in thinking that the 740 has same bodywork/trim as 940. I know it's not a big sale for you but I need to get a replacement plastic trim/panel for rear door driver's side for my 940. It's the dark grey/black bit about 8 inches approx from foot of door, crossing door horizontally and about 2.5 inches top to bottom. Do you think it's the same part, and if so would you be happy to post that down to me in Brighton? Ten pounds plus postage sound right? Cheers.

just so you know the previous owner had sent v5 off as scrap,but i bought it instead of it going to scrap yard for the engine. too much hassle to go through dvla to get it back on the road. but thanks for your input.

Don't envy you Luke, I know what a big problem it can be to unravel DVLA paperwork.

Impossible.
