UPDATE: Brake fluid and coolant changed today....and I'm not even putting the price up! LOL :lol:

Still no sale so I'm guessing if nothing else that the black sills are putting people off? Therefore, I'm looking to get the small rust spot mentioned taken care of and the outer sills re-stone chipped and painted body colour.

Needless to say, once this is done the price will be going up!

Good idea, you're going to finish up keeping her

I'll certainly be more tempted than I already am but I need to free up some cash so she's got to go unfortunately

The car looks much better with the sills body coloured.

If you are in the market for a Turbo, this has to be more than worth a look :wink:

Thanks Sean. It does look better. I should have done it a long time ago! Lol

)

Thanks Clive, the sign may be on the back of a postage stamp next time!

It was nice to meet you today and a great day out at Cadwell

Bump for a lovely car!

Everyone who says they like the look of my turbo gets the stock reply: "I know a lovely blue one for sale in Stamford!"

My Mrs thinks I'm really weird... I just get home from work and have a tinker, then go out for a drive, then sneak in and go to bed when she' already given up for the night. If she didn't smell the petrol fumes and see my dirty fingernails I wouldn't be surprised if she thought I was having an affair!

...but seriously, I was *very* close to buying your car - sorry!! I still absolutely love that interior and those deep dish early offset wheels.

PS: Thanks for the tip about Jon / jmgarage being the man to talk to, btw. He's been chatting to me about some small tweaks to squeeze a little bit more fun out of my car

Hey no need to apologise!

It sounds like you've got the 944 bug for sure
