Subtle improvements in my ownership include:

It is showing a few signs on the bumpers and wheels of being London street parked for most of my ownership, as well as the usual stone chips.

Hi,
Interested!
Why is the vin missing from the suspension thing under the bonnet?
Please can you pm me the vin and reg.
Do you have a stamped up service book and receipts?
Many thanks

All invoices for the service history (and more) are with the car. Service book is mostly stamped (I think one missing from memory)

Vin blurred for privacy. It’s there in real life!

Wow, the market is slower than I expected on here. Price drop whilst the car remains ‘up north’

Hi.

Interested in viewing the car but I cannot send DMs (new member) and there are no contact details I can see. I think I can receive DMs so perhaps you could send a number or email for contact?

Thanks

I think you need a minimum of 3 posts before you can send.
