Ho-hum, dear me...

I did think the same thing but it HAS to be a 2.1TD...

Take a strut top - fit it and drive her home and watch their faces while they see HOW easy it can be l

I did think about doing just that (be good to arrive off the train, with a bag containing only the necessary tools and a strut top, pop the new one away and be off within the hour) but that was before I discovered how dear the replacement strut tops are.... Not that big on the colour either tbh...

but it is a 2.1TD...

Sorry, I had an idea it was a 2.0i TCT auto!! Well then no excuses - easy fix = go for it - 50p will secure...

[jonathan_dyane]

Hmm, if anyone has a usable secondhand top that they could sell or even lend me to get it home, I'd be tempted (I think an XM on a trailer would make the BX cough rather...)

[andmcit]

Why don't we ALL meet there and use it as an excuse for a club-xm bash get together and we can fix
it there and Jonathan can drive the car home - it's MOT'd (and taxed too isn't it!?) Doesn't need any
trailering palava!

Sounds good to me The seller wouldn't know what hit him when the XM posse showed up...

Johnathan,

YOU CANNOT be fussy with XM colours, the engine has to be the FIRST choice!!

I had to suffer with this with my SEi V6, Green ! Urck, I thought, but lived with it as it was the PERFECT spec!

2.1 td? what? I missed that - - - oh, it's an auto.

I like the colour a lot. Unfortunately the seller has a minimum price as the scrap yard will give him a figure for it..
