I would buy that car off someone like yourself girl.
The amount of attention it gets is way more than a lot of clients and their cars I deal with. ๐Ÿ˜Š
Thank you. ๐Ÿ˜ I prefer to fix any issues as soon as possible. Costs less in the long run and hopefully will keep her going.
She was showing a weird issue in the paintwork. It looked like someone had run a wheel with shallow spikes over partof the door.. I thought it was the branches on narrow lanes causing it but too uniform , and body guy says "no" ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿค”
 
"sigh".

Buyers remorse, sellers remorse..

Really did miss this old beast, coincidentally new owner couldn't get on with the old beast, something about 12mpg........ :confused:

Negotiated a deal and picked her back up.

absolutely filthy inside and out, nice to have her back though..

Tis great to see two lovers reunite:vb-bouncy2::vb-hearts:
 
So the next job began today to change the rear brake pipes from the calliper hoses along with the hoses , pads and discs. Whilst attempting to fabricate replacements for the rear pipes I wondered why they are such a complex shape with tight bends. They seem very elaborate to cover a short distance. Can anyone shed any light??
 
She is back and looking lovely. 2 doors done, bumper (where some git hit here when I wasn't there), mirror casings buffed up, but will need painying methinks, one wheel rubbed back and sprayed, Pretty girl is pretty again.
There are a few bits of fettling that are winter jobs for the body shop guy but she looks good ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿš˜
 
Quite tempted to change the L322 to say RAGE ROVER.

Would be apt as f*** around Oxford with all the pedestrians/scooters/bikes that just go straight in front of you like it's your responsibility to look out for their safety.
