Re: 2.1 TD Roumania
My goodness, what a restoration. You must be very pleased. I love the body colour and the cream leather too. Well done...another one saved.
If only I could do that to mine. Oh well!

Re: 2.1 TD Roumania
Thank you. It needs a good polish to bring the true color up. Right now only the hood is polished. I painted for the first time in my front yard and didn't came out very well but after a good polish looks better that a new factory paint The restoration started in March. I did it all by myself.
Cheers,
Razvan

Superb Razvan I love this style of attention to detail.
Well done....and yes a full machine polish will fully compliment the new paintjob...I'm jealous

Never seen anything like this before on an XM. Very much impressed! You must be a highly trained mechanic! How long did it take you>

Re: 2.1 TD Roumania
Very well done, indeed.
As others have noted, it is just the lacquer that needs polishing. The colour coat nearly always goes down flat but lacquer is often orange peely.

Re: 2.1 TD Roumania
This car is a 3 in 1
The body and engine is of a 2.1 1999 , interior and alloy wheels and other small parts from a 2.0 TCT 1996, and other parts from a V6 1996. And many new parts as you can see.
Now i have some trouble with the injection pump (Lucas Epic). I am waiting for a friend with lexia to see exactly what's going on.
