Very nice indeed 👍👍

Gorgeous colour, but appears to be in a rather different league of motor, than the sub £10k rust buckets we’ve mentioned previously.

Worth a look as not a million miles away from you, expect you will always be able to resell in the future.

What’s the worst that can happen ?? 😀

Cheers

Rebuilt rear dampers on that one, I'm going to go against everything I've said on here about working on them and say I used to really enjoy rebuilding them, such an interesting job and very satisfactory seeing and feeling the difference after, I used to do the front ones too. Shimming the front springs was a pain though as the springs even new ones always gave them an odd ride height so we would fit them which took ages with the specialist hand operated spring compressor and then you would measure it and say one side was 10mm lower you would put a 10mm shim in and it would end up going up about 5mm or 15mm it got very tedious!

😀. Luke, I think you may need to lie down in a darkened room….

Does look appealing though, wafting through the countryside, just as long as it’s not on top of a recovery truck 😀😀

I had a hernia operation yesterday and I'm in hospital, the drugs must be in my system still 🤣

The recovery truck would definitely be cheaper to get around in

Well that’s excused then, 👍 best wishes for your recovery.
