That is a beautiful car!
How can people in the UK sell it for under 200 pounds?!! Like mentioned before.... The steering wheel + walnut gear knob + selling the car to a scrapyard = already more than 200 pounds. If i were you i would MOT it and keep the car! The paint looks in excellent condition. |

Hi,what a coincidence I also bought a Damsen Red Connie SE as a donor but also it is too good to break,although not bodywise as shiny as yours,V6 2•5,X reg,only done 56,000,failed on rear suspension arm,still awaiting my attention.Unbelievingly it is sitting on the same type of alloys as yours is.RegardsRy....

been out to it this morning started up first time. i took the radio out to have a quick look, wires everywhere ,some dodgy looking connections which i,ll have a look at later( most of the wiring for the after market radio that came with the car by the look of it), took the boot plinth off to see where the rain was getting in , the plastic light holder in about 5 pieces, sealed that with some silicon as a temporary fix.When it stops raining i,ll get under car to see where exhaust is blowing and i.ll put some more pics up. looking more like a keeper

think i found the previous owners battery draining problem , a small light strip hidden way up behind the glove box, always on. wheels could do with a refurb although they clean up ok. started to sort radio wiring out will get that sorted tomoz when i find my soldering iron.
