Shopping list for Stratford - Now for Cosford

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.

Shopping list for Stratford - Now for Cosford

Post by citsncycles » Sat Aug 09, 2014 9:41 am

Thought I'd post a list of what I'll be looking for at Stratford next weekend, so if anyone's thinking of bringing some gear to sell they'll know if they have a buyer for some of it!

Wheel trims - the early flat disc type. I need at least 2 but will be happy to buy a set of 4 and end up with a couple of spares.
Passenger side turn signal / fog light lens for a Mk1 - the fog light part of mine's busted. Will be happy to buy a complete unit.
Boost gauge sender for a 2.1TD
Passenger side front mud flap - again, I'll buy a pair if available.
Window mechanism for the rear driver's side door - I have to check exactly what I need but I've been told the window's wedged in place with a piece of wood so I'm guessing either something's become detached or a cable's failed.
Heater knob - The centre control knob (the one that sets where the air goes) didn't seem to be doing what it should, and on investigation the bit over the shaft has cracked, allowing the knob to rotate round it.
Mirror switch - it worked, then it didn't! I'll try cleaning it up but may need to swap it out.

I'm sure there's other stuff too, but I either need to investigate further (such as why nothing happens when you hit the rear wash button) or I'll remember it in the next few days.

Thanks, I've fired off a question about postage to the seller.

Mark, if you have NO joy for Stratford We HOPE YOU will come along to Telford, Cosford RAF Meuseam to the 25th Annerversry XM Rally instead.

I may be able to help you then, and bring some parts along there.

He's answered with a similar price to me so I've stuck a bid on to see what happens.
