lol - we are at opposite ends - I do travel frequently round the country and what might work best is if you were willing to come to Bristol airport I could possibly meet you there and then drop you at a station - if that is any help? Logistically, my work diary is backed up till mid November - so we would be looking at around the 17th or so - possibly earlier. I do have a chap I use to collect cars but the distances we are talking about are expensive.

What-ho!

No worries with Brizzle Airport (have you thought of Cardiff International?) nice drive and I would bring another car (and driver,natch) so the return is no prob, either.

I sent you a pm with my moby number, did it get through?

Nick.

Its now Monday pm and I still haven't been able to wash the car...

Still, at least we're not flooded out like some places so I MUST NOT grumble.

Default 960 Turbo snaos.

Right, the rain stopped (briefly) so I managed to snap off a few. Quality ain't great as the sun kept buggering about (Hokey-Kokey; you know, in, out, in, out...)

A few of the interior...















Exteriors...











Under bonnet...







Wheels...









... and one or two blebs and scratches.













Hope these help, regards, Nick H.

Forgot to mention, in the lists of faults rectified, that I also replaced both rear door locking solenoids with used units from my old mate Buzz at Pensarn Volvos, Cwrtnewydd, West Wales.

Morning.

Not so sure it is a ZF box, as it has the push-button o/d switch in the gear shift; running fine though, thanks.

I think you right. On 2nd look, I don't think it is a ZF.
All the best
