Practical Classics XM buyers guide out now.

Post by russ92xmsed » Wed Jun 15, 2016 3:20 pm

The long awaited Practical Classics with Ray's XM in is out in the shops. Got a copy today, so far from what I have read it's a very good piece.

Car looks great Ray. :)

Oh bloody hell on the one day I was busy with.... Erm... It's a secret.... I didn't get a chance to go to the shop and see if it was on sale!

PS: anybody got a towing eye cover for a series II in silver? 😉

I rushed out and bought a copy... Looks great in print!

However, can I please just clear this up.... I said that the car (KVG) had been to Egypt, I didn't say that I took it.

:D I noticed that too. Knew it was a typo as KVG has such an interesting history which Vince discovered and shared when he owned it.
