Only Virgin on the ridicules..... Ahh understood now, used to work for the airlines Ok.

£9500 he is having a laugh I have the exact same model in the same spec colour inside and out. Paid £3500 9 years ago when it had 90000 on it

I have a Black one,, Yep Java Black from the factory.

Just a normal day here as the Ruskies don't do Christmas (suits the Grinch in me) so took the beast out for a run just to make sure that the EAS compressor rebuild was working properly, that's my excuse anyway for going for a drive as times ticking to going away again already.

Refurbed the EAS compressor as a preventative measure, I don't know if or when it was ever done but at 20 years old it deserved it either way. As it turned out the old ring was worn but not excessively though. Retaining ring was a bit of a bugger to get off but managed without doing too much...

Cheers Gold Rover, that's the bugger I might get onto that and all need now is a Friend :p Thought would get that one in before somebody else does.:):)

Thanks guys. I think i'll have a look next time i'm in the UK as it's just taken 4 weeks to get some other parts shipped out here. Never used to be that bad in the past, since the Russians took over everything has to go via Moscow and sit on somebody's shelf for days on end and after all it is...

Its been so long ever being out at night in it I forget if it has auto dimming, so guess it has and as so accurately put its Broked. Thanks guys for the info.

Bugger,

Anybody any idea what could cause this? went out this morning and the door mirror is weird. Dark outer edge with a clear spot in the centre like a strange movie image. It wasnt especially cold last night and the other mirror is fine.

Mine are the same. OEM from Island made by Dunlop made in the UK

back in Russia for the winter so yes Go P38 don't let me down

New battery today as the old one was goosed due to its lifestyle (that's in another post) All good reset the windows and sunroof and then toured around the city to the never ending shops the long haired colonel insisted were a must. Even the key fob worked close up as my RF lead has been...

Back on the subject I am still waiting to fit my rear airbags and rebuild the compressor. (luckily the beast is still working i just know they need doing) Ordered the parts a month ago now. and because of the weight on airmail to Russia the seller put 1 air bag and the 4 new retaining clips in...

Mate, I can just imagine.. I would be fuming like you as like you I know this French attitude. I might have had to go home and get my gun.

As suspected battery buggered. Well it is 4 years old and doesn't have the typical battery lifecycle. It gets hammered in the winter with cold starts in Russia but as the beast has always started first time it fairs quite well just takes extra herbs at minus temps. So with that you always need...

+1 I used these to replace my front ones about 2 years ago and no issues and currently waiting for my rear ones to arrive, unfortunately the post system has gone down hill. last time took 7 days to arrive so far waited just over 3 weeks for them to be still sat in the UK Hasten to add this is...

I do like a nice straight forward no nonsense answer.

Hit the Royal mail track and trace button again for the parts I ordered 3 weeks ago and...............still sat waiting to depart the UK. Fair play to the Royal mail they have been handed over to Russia post who are being very Russian about the whole thing as I called them and they agreed they...
