He was on his feet the last time I saw him. Not sure when you met him, but he was due to go under the knife again for reconstruction work which is why I don't bother him as I never know whether he is in or out of hospital. He certainly Milks it.________________________________________  |

I agree about the white. Awful body kit though. So I suppose it did it a favour in the long term. Always found it odd he left the smoothed grill on it though. Geoff said that when he found the car in the ditch he used it as a splint for his leg until the paramedics arrived - but then that could be Geoff taking the p*ss. Apparently because it was one of few bits of the car that were in one piece, he kept it as a lucky charm. ________________________________________ |

Did you just do the HPi now to verify that, or is it a printed copy the previous owner gave you? ________________________________________ |

Just done it now, checked from first registration in 1999. £4.95, didn't need the 6.99 one with forecourt and resale prices.. |

its the £6.99 which gives you the information you need, you can still do the 6.99 one and it will only charge you the difference mate, so £2 which is nothingat least this way, you will have the repairs and colour change on record in case anything happens down the line..! |

Just checked, and the 6.99 one only gives you price information, value, dealer/private prices onto of what the 4.95 one does... Icarcheck... It has had a private plate on it in 2008, but replaced with the original plate now... Seems like all is a-ok with its history.. If it was White, and smashed up, then it hasn't ever been declared on the log book, nor has it ever been claimed for/against.... She's ok now regardless... Just needs timing up and all plugging back in! RE dials, any decent options out there? This one has a FULL polished piece for the dials, from metal monkey I think.. And it is a bit garish and VERY reflective, almost mirror-like... I would like a brushed aluminium set of dials, but don't want to spend £90 on them :/ |

Moonstone is an elegant colour, one which only a small number of elite members can have the divine pleasure in experiencing....You've either had the pleasure, or you haven't.
