K-BAN has a new home

Post by raynoon » Sat Oct 31, 2015 4:33 pm

Well... As some of you may know, I agreed to buy K-BAN. After dropping CEO off at the Anglesey Hospital I picked up K-BAN and drove home. She cruised along the A55 impeccably, struggled up the big hill a little, but I didn't need to change down. She's very dirty and I'm looking forward to giving her a good going over with my cleaning products.
This will now be the new blog for K-BAN. Please note: any faults or problems I find with K-BAN that I post in here is not my way of having a go at Paul, there are bound to be some and I just want to document her progress.

Great news Ray, you'll enjoy KBan. It's a solid car. Paul has done so much to it, I'd be surprised if anything huge crops up.
Glad to see CEO is off having the welding done. :D

Fantastic to see you've got a decent XM Ray, you're in good hands with a car from Paul.

Looking forward to seeing progress :)

Ray, if you fancy 'up-grading' to alloys give me a shout. I am going back to the original steels on mine and have a set of alloys at the right price!!! Not perfect but as I said the price is right.

We might have a set here of the correct sort rob for ray.. .. however.. id possibly be interested in yours if the price is right as they are the best type of alloy for the xm in my opinion of course which doesnt count for much.

Paul, they are yours or Rays. Soon to be surplus to my requirements so just keen they go to a good home rather than weighing them in.

As I said not perfect but not horrible and perfectly salvageable with a bit of TLC.

Many thanks CXPrestige, which type are they? Paul knows the type I'm after, I don't know what they're called. But if these aren't that type then Paul is welcome to them. I think the wheel trims are quite nice.
