Save a S1.5 SED Auto - rebuilt autobox

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.

I do still feel ill when thinking about the x5 s1's I weighed in a month ago - they were complete and two
even drove off the trailer and I'm kicking myself to let headlights, nosecones, glove box handles, alternators
etc etc go and now after I read your comment about Oz owners desperate for good interiors which I had, I'm
rather annoyed with myself. Thing is, I HAD to get rid of them in part to keep hold of the ones I still have and
along the way realised its all in the mind this urgency to 'save' stuff. It's self defeating really as cars or the parts
saved off them generally always seem to have THE SAME issues as the daily driver you're running anyway!

What?? Your beautiful Activa is peeling too Jim!? Mine wasn't but has dents all over it as well as no glass instead. :(

I'm afraid so Andrew. It looks like it was out in the sun for too long...

Even worse is on the roof you can see a large area of whitish bloom under the lacquer that's still intact...

I'm bracing myself for a roof respray next year. So far it's only the roof...
