I'm not the seller Horsey, that would infringe Forum rules and I would be admonished most severely by Rhys (using a Horsewhip you gave him)
The car looks clean.
The price looks "hopeful".
Local rag is an odd choice of media for such a car.

I am now £300 pounds lighter
I have got center Tie Rob, track rod ends, and control arms, Drop arm and idler arm.
Put the fuel filter on yesta day and I had a quick look at the oil leak, I have a PAS exploshion and there is PAS fluid all over and lots of it , but this may be sorted thanks to Rob.

whats up with the Baron's PAS Mark?
VJ has stopped spewing PAS fluid all over the place since you took the cap off and let the excess fluid out
200 miles in VJ on Sunday - pure bliss

I was told that the doors I bought were Series II but fitted with Series I mirror mountings.
The doors you bought should fit OK, let us know what happens

Not an XJ6 for me, I use me 1982 3 sped auto 735 every day, 35 miles to work and back 200 miles a week. But unfortunately the Red Baron is a fuel-aholic Me Im a shark-aholic.. Nice to drive.

A BMW mini meet in or near Brighton is a great idea Mark. Why don't you start a topic in the South East Forum to see if anyones up for it
VJ will attend if the RB is there too.
My mech has been saying nice things about the Silver Surfer. He says it will make a very nice car with a bit of TLC.

it would be an honour to have my car on your valeting website
the SS is away in the health farm being rejuvenated.
would VJ make a good before 'n' after example for your valeting skills?
VJ's paintwork is OK now but will definitely benefit from your treatment.
have you got the product to get hard baked-on brake dust off the alloys?

I've tried all sorts of stuff, even 'wonder wheels' stuggles to get old baked on brake dirt to shift!
heonly real way is to get them refurbed, and at approx £50 per wheel may be seen as a bargain, however you may be able to find a decent like new set of original alloys much cheaper than that in the bay.
