Talking ANOTHER White Gold tourer.....

Yes I love white gold tourers. This is my 3 in a year lol.

Example that needs a bit of work but currently has mot and I'm definitely keeping this one.







230k miles on it, Connie se, sunroof tourer, everything on it bar sat nav which suits me.

Plans? Mot it which is a list in itself, previous owner was good mate and he only had it a year, but owner before that had neglected it massively.

After than see what it brings. But I've wanted a diesel manual for a long time as a backup and project car. Seeing as bar mot and services my other two are good and as far as I can take.

Superb rare color that suits the tourer well, a limousine in Moonstone Green
would suit superbly!!
Nice collection you own. And my deep respect for all you efforts you undertake to keep those characterful machines on the road

I would have a few more if I could.

Limo is 100% on list for 2018, ideally v6 auto and Mk1, but either would do.

Looks a very promising car and one that will reward you well after a thorough clean up. Sometimes neglected cars can make the best projects because they have also not suffered from bodges. Really like the cream leather interior, kept hoping one would come up when i was looking for my second car but they never do when you want them to.

Will be new head lining and sound proofing the roof as my first main job after mot.

Then it's whole interior strip, sound deadening whole car, refit to my standard and then door cards off, do them also and refit with new clips.

Aim is to take the luxury of it to next stage.

Long term I would like this to be my car I develop ideas on and then move onto my main cars.

So whilst parts arrive I've started cleaning her up on outside. First off, replacement rims and tyres. As she's a 02 Connie se I want the car to reflect its age and spec, so I've dug out my old set of comets on winter tyres, cleaned them up, waxed and ready for fitting.
