Looking as stunning as ever Cliff, really doesn't show its age.

Thanks guys - much appreciated . I've had her for 13 years now, the longest I've eve owned a car for - really scary how the time goes by. When I first bought her, I thought the novelty would wear off in around 3 months .

Default Your car

Thanks .

The walnut bits are OEM and are like hens teeth. They were originally fitted to a limited edition '75 named the Longbridge Edition which was sold in Belgium. I was very lucky in getting my set from another member and in my 13 years of ownership, I have yet to see another set "in the flesh". I do know that member Eric Druyts in Germany also has a walnut arm rest lid, and I believe so does Jules (in North Wales).

A couple more pics of the switches:

Big big fan of that wooden armrest - Where did you get it from? Is that also part of the Longbridge edition?

Edit: Nevermind, just read the above comment!
