Amazing how so many people are commenting about this.
That is my old car.
BTW, I had the tracking sorted. And yes it came with the steering wheel slightly off centre after a 10k bill.
I think there is more to this than the meets the eye.

This was June less than 2 years ago!

Nice one Scaf, you and me both mate , separate exhaust microphones next time , its the only way to beat the wind noise , but the competitor in me says you really shoulda had that *** stepping out a bit more , and there was no snow or ice on the ground so that must have been the juniors course lol

You must be gutted to see a car you clearly cherished end up like this.

didn't mean to like! How can you unlike? Gutted as it was a cracking looking car on the Italy trip

Press the like again. Then self flagellate with your owners manual as penance

Looks like a balmy summer’s day north of the border to me. They’ll be out in bikinis and Speedo’s for a dip in the Clyde.

And when was the last time you were getting soaked undeneath a bonnet 400 miles from home , a spring chicken i aint

 

[Navcorr]

400 miles? Close, but no cigar ...

Define rain. Go on - I dare you. I keep mine in the South and was putting in new bulbs all around upfront.
T'was a touch breezy & wet yesterday - still didn't get through the layers though.

Have a missed something DM? Did the water damage happen in your ownership or had you moved her on? Hope you’re well, by the way.

Loz - hope you get it and manage to get her back to her former glory. Before you ask, i don’t want it when you’re done this time!! Also, hello and hope you are well too. You’ll have noticed the nonsense over the silver GS recently, when i see you next I’ll fill you in! I miss it actually, loved that car.

This was certainly in amazing condition when Dave took it from Brett - I inspected it at Emblem.

Did it sit for a while in deep flood water, or was it water taken up through the intake while driving through a deep puddle? If the former, I’d say it’s terminal (cost wise), if the the later, ”just” an engine rebuild.

Worth contacting @AP1971 believe he was owner after @D Walker he may be able to shed some light on exactly what happened,

If I'm not mistaken, the music is the same music Andy Dufresne played when he locked himself in the Wardens office in Shawshank Redemption.
