Re: Interceptor MkIII rims on MkII

G-man is right on the money. I decided to change the wolfrace rims on our (dads) Mk11 for the GKN's that had been the only restored properly part on a Mk111 we (he) also had bought (without me and was a total Keith ie Lemon) I did this on a whim when back from school to surprise dad on his return ho...

Re: 1987 S4 Int convertible on Car and Classic auction site

G-man, The quality wasn't there with the S4's? How so? It is quite possible you know more than I, But the only thing I would say which is sort of agreeing, is that they should have been caked in wax-They were not. That said, mine has a huge mileage (not by me shamefully!) and spent half its time of ...

Re: RIP Colin Holley

Echo Big-Stu. Where do I begin. The man that helped to keep all the car he helped alive, Jensen especially since forever. More skilled than most, more humble than all. Personally. I called him Uncle Colin, That's because he was so much more than a mate or a bloke that could look after your car- the ...

Re: Classic cars on the road

G-man, The DBS was on wires as said, The early cars had lots of small differences both bodily and trim, when DBSV8 production started the body and trim was standardised for both models wheels aside, The deep front chin was changed to cure front lift at high speed. Personally love the early car as so...
