Dear all,

Hopefully the link below will allow you to see the old gal in all her glory.

Apologies for focussing on the grotty bits!

Very nice Rob. A little TLC as Neil says and that will be a very tidy early XM. :)
It looks great in white. Look forward to seeing it at a future rally. 8-)

It looks like well cared for unmolested example, its a nice car. Has the right hand display not responded to a reset? It looks like its in its initial power up state still.

Very nice

Very Nice Rob!

Might have a decent rear spoiler in the collection to help finish her off!!!

I also look forward to seeing her, AND yourself again after so long at a future rally!

Dean, no idea how to reset the display! It was in this state when I bought the car a couple of weeks ago. I have just sourced a new display!!!

How do I reset/power it up?

Thanks for all the positive comments. I too think there is a decent car there. She needs a bit of tidying which I hope to find time for soon. I have bought a complete set of service parts so that is first. Then it will be going through bit by bit.

Aim to to have her presentable for Burleigh House on the 25 April.

Two small holes in the face, poke something in one or the other and it will display time and temp, if there is no illumination you will have to take the dash face off to replace the bulbs.
