Anyone's old 75 on here?
Club sticker in back window and added walnut accessories everywhere and possibly had diesel upgrade, colour coded engine & fuse box covers but now in scrap yard and looks like it may have broke its nsf ball joint and put wheel into wing, I got a few bits off it today but there's a walnut steering wheel needing restoration still on it.

I had the car for 10 years and sold it to a member up in Scotland.

Maybe the clutch went or scrapped as part of a scheme and got a new car...?
Shame, especially since it’s only just been MOTd.
