This isn't much of an issue to be honest. I'm kind of tempted by it myself. Not sure my pained hands and shoulders could cope with doing the ram job though.

That's a very early one with the all-black interior. Non-aircon too... You can tell by the fan speed knob having no Auto position..

These very early ones are rare and worth saving. Only available for a few months like the S1 V6.

No, not an issue at all... Mike, if you won it I'd be happy to do the honours for you...

That's very kind of you Jim, and I'm most grateful but given your fight back to health and knowing that you'd be most upset if something went wrong with it after, I'd not let you! I'd rather have a happy and healthy Jim!

That's where the rear ram is. If there's a pool then it's not a light leak!

Easy to sort... Wings bolt on easily enough...

No. It's the same colour as the puddle in the road. Anyway, he states it's the front ram that's leaking..

All the red ones do that. That one looks like it's escaped remarkably well actually.

Nope, that car will STINK like rotten old fish inside, you can tell because they are Chelsea supporters who own it, they always leave a bit of a smell on most things they touch :)


Nice car,
