Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

What an amazing different description, do you think he found us and heard that a better decription was neede.

Peter, A S1.5 is the BEST setup to have I think... they seem to have the best bodys, the least problems with Electro valves, HAVE got bolted earths, a proper dash...BOSCH Injection fitted on her too...

WOW even an offer to replace the matrix on his drive...

Prosective buyer, get in touch, I got LOADS of martix's, and they are EASY to do on the XM too, NO need for dash out!

Shes legal too . Daammm good car, ill be watching closly..

Yes, I do fancy this myself as I love the Maroon and desperately need a legal tow car.
As sad as this sounds I DO like his rear number plate.

Looks like it's going to make somebody very happy.

Attention is needed with the matrix issue -see ebay question: leak has happened in recent freeze -no antifreeze? what about the head?

cheers

you could have 'i believe in fairies' if you so wish George as seems to be the trend with a certain type of person these days, the sky's the limit as they say regarding the rubbish you can have written on your plate border, i keep thinking about getting a 'powered by minced fairys' sticker made up,but i hate car stickers :) .

I'm going to see it tommorrow afternoon, yes, he did actually reply to my email this time! So, if anyone wants to go and make him an offer - you will have to go in the morning :D

Paul

I am in the process of fitting a matrix to the white one at the moment, I've got it half way out but am having difficulty cutting the plastic. The one I took from the green one had already been replaced as the case was glued together, which made it quite easy to get out.

Its not very easy to get to the pipes to bypass the matrix, I wonder if in the event of my buying it, I could clamp the hoses with a couple of pairs of mole grips.

What I like about this message is the OEM look of it as though it were done by a supplier dealer.
On a K that's not likely though. Most if not all numberplate suppliers have big lairy ugly names
and postcodes now as a legal requirement by VOSA for traceability of fraudulent plates.

You starting to muscle in on us s1 boys now you've bought all the s2's Peter?

Guess if you're aiming to buy this one if the seller agrees to finish early we'll have to go swapsies
with my green 95 manual s2 estate! :lol:
