It has 11 months MOT. First job (barring getting the spurious badges off it) will be a complete service including the belts.

First thing we expected to see when we went to see the car was the driver's side cupholder - and it doesn't have one .

I have done quite a bit of research on the S reg 75's. During the early years of this club, there was a lot of interest and much was written about them. All those posts are in the club archives. The DEH group and what happened to each one is catalogued. Cup holders, the springs do wear out and can be replaced via the clubs wanted section or via a scrappy. Out of interest, will you be replacing the belts yourself?

ps the drivers side cup holder was not an original feature, hence the fake wood blank, however they can be sourced. I bought one from a left hand drive 75 which came from Portugal via club member Trimani RIP
