I know roughly where you are. I bought a car once from J O'Hara in Overtown (that's near you isn't it) and it was my first Rover - a 1988 216 Vitesse!! It was an excellent motor too, apart from a rotten subframe.

It certainly is cold in these parts. At least it's nice and seasonal, coming out to pure white cars every morning. I love it!!

Cheers.

Know where you are, 2 mins from the house.
next time your in the area pop in for a cuppa if you like, morningside aint big, youll see the car sitting if im in of course.

That's one very nice Tourer, you'd never find another one like that. Just goes to show how going mad on the options will rack up the price.

Let me know if you ever get bored with it, but I suspect there will be a queue!!

Nice one Rapid6. I'm sure we will end up meeting at some point. Likewise, if you're ever out my way........

I've just finished fitting the Walnut Dash Co. Kit that I got for Christmas. Has anyone else done one of these?

I'm generally pleased with the result; but a couple of observations, The window switch covers really need something around them - like a chrome edge to hide the remains of the black plastic, and I had to improvise the stereo surround as I have an aftermarket unit fitted, I used Foliatec Film from Halfords and it's not a bad match.

Anyway, see what you think:

Christopher made a Vast Improvement on his Finish.

That looks better, is that the adhesive chrome edging that I saw in Halfords yesterday and didn't buy.

Being a bit anal about these things I'd want to find a way of concealing the joint in the moulding.

I was thinking the same thing........maybe put the join facing towards the door card, lees obvious then

Less likely to pull away also as the curve isn't as sharp
