Hi Mike
Iv not advertised it any where else yet I'm honestly open to a sensible offer, as I said it's not about the money just want it to go to a good home.
Am happy to answer any questions if you have a look at all my previous post it will give you an idea of what iv done in my ownership.
Off the top of my head
Head gaskets with refurbished heads, still have the old ones
New rockers
Brake discs all round
Shocks all round
New heated wind screen
No hevac warning
Rear air bags
New suspension pump
All front end steering components
Complete strip down and overhaul of the eas
New Water pump etc etc
I stripped the fuse box down repaired some bad connections and resolderd every joint to ensure no future issues
I installed an android head unit due to the dsp amp failing, think I was the 1st todo it on here.
I fixed the heated seats and installed upgrade stats in the seats, they actually get warm unlike the originals.
Obviously New cats this week And rewrapped the manifolds, I wrapped them originally after doing the heads.
Iv spared no expense I even recovered the headliner a few years back.

I'm sure there are many more things, everything works I even dug out a brand new key I bought from the main stealers , not cheap. I'm going to refurb the other 2 , iv also got x2 original emergency keys.
The only negative is a slight whine from the rear diff, I swopped out the original not long after I bought it, it's a 4 pin like the original diff but alas this has developed a whine. I would if keeping swop it out for a cheaper 2 pin diff or have the current one overhauled at a local specialist.
The rear tyres are legal but would need sorting soon. The body work is almost unmarked I'm going to give it a full machine polish this week.

When I read that all back I realise just how much iv put into this car.
Reg is
W486 NLA so you can do an mot check for milage.

Will post up some more photos after a polish please be aware I'm only selling due to impending ULEZ extension out to where I live if you are inside the M25 if they extend it next year it falls foul to Kharns Tax. Iv lost my storage where its been all this time so it has Togo.
Please pm me for more info and come and have a look see, I'm in se London, Kent really but as a London borough getting royally fecked

Well the photo of the rocker shaft should help @kermit_rr to see if he's assembled his correctly.
