What rare options/parts do you have?
Wandering around a clothes shop today with two females left me plenty of time to think over the interesting points in life. One of these is...what rare/unusual options do you have on your cars?
Take my 400 series. It's a 440 GLT, the top trim level which I imagine was/is fairly rare. I also have: Rear Volvo sunblind Volvo dog guard Volvo CD-401 cd changer and control unit Moulded floor trays Cobra remote central locking system Go on then, what's yours?

You win lol. Yours in your sig is a CD isn't it? I'd imagine that trim level is fairly rare.

I'd say those were fairly rare too. I've got front fogs, reading lights and boot tray as well. Love the wee bits like that Wondering if anyone's got cruise control on their 400 series (it was an option as per the brochure, more commonly found on the 480 GT trim).

According to the sort of day Howmanyleft is having, it's either the last or second last CD Turbo auto on the road in GB. Shame I'm ripping the auto 'box out for a manual. Nothing I won't be able to reverse though.

Also, thinking about it...
I also have full leather and working A/C on my P2 460 CD. Both pretty rare. Shame the rest of the car is rotton as a pear and well beyond economic repair. All the goodies from this will be going in my T4 conversion. Think that'll be the first in the country then.
