No, mate of mine from the Gay Classic Car Group. It will be joining a garage full of classic Citroen's!

See, they all get converted to Volvo in the end...........

Fair do's, you snooze you lose!

Hmm... They are quite difficult to win over, those Frenchy lovers.

Is he aware that the 400s use Renault engines? That would be like something Vauxhall powered in the middle of a plethora of classic Fords!

Although this is coming from someone who is giving serious thought to dropping a Volvo T6 lump into their Capri, so hardly a purist!

Guys, someone please please rescue my LHD 460 (you will have seen it in the previous threads)! I went for a run in it today, it feels so nice and is in such sound condition that it would be soul destroying to see it crushed. It will need a new radiator in time (the silly leak returned today when it was hot, despite the K-seal), a little piece of petrol pipe needs replacing that's starting to perish and it is idling a bit high now after not being used for a while, so it may be taking in a bit of air somewhere. I am very much open to all offers (obviously above £100, which is what my local scrap man has said he will pay me, and it comes with some extra parts which would go on ebay if scrapped). I so want to see this car carry on, I have had it for 19 years and it's never failed me.
