After popping over to Rotrex Towers to pick up some bits for the ZT, I have permission from SWMBO to go on a quest for another 75.
However.... she has set the bar a little high.
After Elsa fell in love with Tam's Dorchester Red Connie SE with Aubergine Leather, that's what I've got to hunt for. As far as engine goes? Don't care, but a V6 might be nice.
The words "needle" and "haystack" spring to mind.
If anyone comes accross anything, please PM me.
Cheers
Tim

Thats the thing with these cars,most things can be upgraded.If the car with the cloth interior is minted then snap it up and buy a used leather interior.The w reg with the cloth interior looks good with less than 100k on the clock and a CDT too  |

Wow! the mighty machine swings in to action.
Ideally I'm after a personal line car. I've done the interior swapping thing and really don't want to go there again unless I have to. Especially with Aubergine as it means swapping dash top, door cards, console etc.

Especially with Aubergine as it means swapping dash top, door cards, console etc. and carpet  Tim if I'd known I would have hid the old girl that day thus saving you this ordeal as you know I love the old thing. today I have just refitted the carpet, as few weeks ago she sprung a sudden leak from a sunroof drain, its been very fraustrating tbh as not only did it take forever to completely dry the carpet once hanging in the conservatory. I'v been waiting nearly 2 weeks now for a dry day to get it back in  |
