To revive an old thread here are a few recent photos, very much in love with this car, in equal measures driving and working on it.
Since the last running reprt post I have done the following
Replaced:
Gearbox oil, cleaned filter
Air filter
Cooling fan resistor
Passenger door lock (central locking bouncing after lubing)
Coolant
Brake fluid
Front wheel arch liners

Checked cc fluid and topped up, a right pain as had to remove spare wheel well, can't see how it can be reached otherwise?

And installed under tray with ALL bolts!

It sounds worse than it is but l like to know everything is done properly and again enjoy working on the car.

Next up will be a professional underseal before seeing any salt.image.jpgimage.jpg

All the best Greg

It's amazing how GranSport prices are holding up. To think that I bought one that was just a year old for 45K!

I love them still, but I don't think I could buy an 8 year old one now for 35K.

Thanks for the comments, think the only thing left to do next year is change the plugs for some iridium ones and maybe the belt then charcoal filter but from what I understand if there is no fuel smell then the activated carbon is still doing its job.

35k is top money for a late, low mile top of the line example. I bought at the other end of the spectrum! still it's a GS...

How did you get on with your two previous gransports?

Your car is stunning if I had the money when this car was up for sale I would have gone for this one. I love it. But I also love mine image.jpg

Loved them both, particularly the one I modded up. No serious problems with either one, which was an added bonus.

I'd love a high miler to add to the fleet, but don't have the space.
