Yeah, you are right Andy - well spotted! I was out when my Dad took those, otherwise there would have been another 850 in the background!

Would part with 2000 maybe but you have picked a bad time of year would have it at the end of jan 2009. Timing always a bitch. Good luck.

Update on car.

Handbrake mechanism was a bit sticky for MOT but otherwise perfect! Replaced both rear calipers with new ones, new rear discs & pads and new handbrake cable. Works well now and has new MOT.

Would like to sell now as have bought a replacement project car.
