I know. Don't worry you were clearly loving having the 24V back! The photos taken I think are brilliant. I'm still quite shocked at how powerful that car is. 8-)
Lights are fine again no worries there. As I said to you, I need to shut the squeaky hydro belt up, but apart form that the mandarin XM is going fine. And now sorting out the claim on the old one..well the price of it at least, is load of the mind.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to those as well.

Scary.. It's an animal! :twisted: the image and the engine just don't seem to match, but I 'm glad they Citroen did. :lol:

Thanks Rob. It is a relief in some respect. I can now concentrate on looking after MOR.

Hi Russ,

If you have saved the bits from your old car do you have by any chance the rubber door seal for the drivers door as mine has split at the top right hand corner of the door.

Well done, Russ, on the insurance front. "Nil illegitumi carborundum...". Good news.

Norman, I would ask Matthew about his seal, only because I know my drivers door seal had a tear in it which I glued back, but how long it would last I don't know. Out of all of them, it's that one that is damaged. So if you can get a better one, that would be a wise thing to do I think. sorry about that.

Hi Matthew,
Yes I'm still looking for a door seal mine has torn at the top right hand corner so if you have a good one I'm interested just let me know how much you want for it and how you can get it to me.
