Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

Your not going after the blue one on ebay with CD spec alloys are you?  Smiley

Or is it the black one with the seat backing ripped slightly.

Sounds interesting - will I get to see this one?

Being an estate, are you going to try to flog it to the household servants (aka Mother)?

hummm yes and no.... the body work is in much better condition, 4 rust bubbles not really noticable, which is a big bonus, as the rust on Proj.A was a right pain.

Same problem with the leccy seats... going to investigate that.

I'd say its about the same work as Proj.A

yes no longer just a 'full member'  Grin

Radio is a bit of PITA.... but as McB said not to bother!!!, i might just rip one out of the scrappy and shove it in the hole and say it does't work!

Tomorrows plan, give it a damn good clean. (after i have been to the scrappy)
