From the pictures it looks like a decent motor. Bodywork looks okay, interior very nice, mileage not killed - just in need of a little tlc.

Rear spheres from http://www.aepdirect.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and LHM from Comma

Front height correctors don't tend to go pop, but a good dose of WD40 on both front and rear wouldn't hurt.

Not on the valve itself but the height valve is attached by plastic dog bone link to a lever.. Its the pivot the lever is on that needs to lubrication..

You will need to make a new topic in the members cars when you get it so you have l your info in one place rather in the introduction area..

Thanks for the links, I wasn't all that sure about the fluid as it seem to come from various people are various prices.
I was reliably informed from a oil supplier, that all LHM+ is made by Total and rebottled in whatever brand it is being sold as. Certainy theirs is rebranded Total. The rationale is that it is a low volume product, so not economical for an oil supplier to make their own.

Very surprised to hear that, bad timing I suppose.

Try The Sphere Shop but delivery can be up to 14 days.
