Yes i get what your saying but my Bentley RT Mulliner was a very special car indeed and super fast 420 BHP model and comfy as hell.
Hell of a lot of weight compared to the Jag.

Crimping, soooo much crimping! Had EAS error message pop up a couple of times, but only the soft error. So my dad @Mark Piercy said to look at the plugs in the driver's side footwell, the passenger side ones had been done so that ruled that out. Turns out the common leak from the cabin filter had been dripping onto the plugs, pooling and then trickling down the wires and that made them corrode rather badly.
So I spent ALL yesterday afternoon crimping 27 bloody wires to their corresponding counterparts so no more green corroded plugs. The error still popped up again though...the left rear sensor seems to be out of range so gonna swap it with the other one to rule out my crimping.
You can also solder them but I'm not entirely adept with that so I decided to crimp, which isn't the best methode but works
The other side had caused massive power drain and the rear LH door speakers to squeak and buzz when the BECM and radio were activated. So don't forget to do some preventative crimping or soldering in that region

Sexual favours don't get anything nowadays. Hence why I still don't have a new set of brakes...

Is safe there! Not like it’s a Defender and I’m worried it will disintegrate and blow awayBut yours sits in your garden.
I’ve been too ill to make real progress as I usually would but it’s on the cards. sorted few niggles needed for MOT, got to work out what’s up with 1 headlight, I’d like to fit new pads to the front for peace of mind, insurance and windscreen (this is the one that bothers me), oil and filter change, rear tyre is leaking at the bead so if It can’t be saved that’s 2 giant tyres to replace
Before I can get it mot’d then taxed
If there’s anything left of the budget I may get a £35 lift pump jobby just to see if it works
well, wassup? whats the symptom?

Symptoms - no lights come on drivers side headlamp only, That’s the main and high beam in one. Connectors grotted up most likely all other electrics function correctly
Does the rear light come on, if you checked?

All other lights work properly but I didn’t check the fogs

Think outside, no box required.
But yours sits in your garden.
Safest place for a P38 for reliability.
Not much happening today while it's tipping down!!
Been trying to find out about about the front hub/swivel assembly but can't see anything in rave under steering or axles
That's the ball-joints that need the alignment tool unless you're careful taking them off. The ones that can only be done 3 times.
