Peter N's Car.....

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 think it's the drive-shaft centre bearing come loose and allowed the shaft to move out. Either way and easy fix.

Thanks Paul

I'm sure it only wants the shaft slid back in to drive, I have had this happen myself. Now of course it is not street legal and I don't have access to a suitable trailor, if it was MOTd you could at least tax and insure it for the journey but they are getting very hot on documentation now. I would like it if someone would like to deliver it here for me for me :D

A rare car well worth having but I don't at the moment have the time or inclination to fetch it myself, if you take a pair of mole grips and a hammer you could have it driving in five minutes, its got to be a very good buy for someone.

shipping expensive :(
what spec is it? and would it really be that easy a fix? if so why would he not have done it himself?

the shiply one?

I reckon you'll get it moved at less than a £1 a mile.

I'm going to suggest that what you really want is an S2 and therefore an S1.5 just doesn't do it for you.

True, although due to the scarcity of them I was considering one. If it had still been legal I would certainly have had a look at it, especially as its not to far away. I can't see that it can be anything other than the drive shaft has slid out, I cant understand why no one has had a go at it.
