As title listing R742 CGC , spotted F/S as spares or repair, note it has very good strut tops !
E-bay Seller wrote:XM 2.0 TCT with 135,000 miles. Engine & autobox is very smooth. Has normal wear & tear for its age and mileage. Has various things wrong with it. Drivers window is inop., boot lid doesn't open, heater blower doesn't work, speedo recently stopped working, wear on drivers seat. Car has just failed its MOT on just one thing - has 3 suspension leaks. More like weeps as no fluid is leaking onto road & level hasn't needed to be topped up for some time. Sold as spares or repair. Strut tops are excellent.

I think I know the cars owner. Who has contacted me a few times for parts from me.

I was sorely tempted simply because it was black... however, also just thinking about it while I type this I may also be thinking of the wrong car and theres another Back Turbo in Glasgow, but manual...


Too many night shifts - cant think straight.

That gave some problems as I seem to remember? Now now, I like my dashboards! I don't love them, don't hate them, it's fine for me. Horrid well....steering rack gaiters are horrid :)
