Re: Complete 1958 541 in Italy
Very nice car. 4,500 original miles it says. Any chance that is correct? I wonder if that is original paint?

Re: TWO Int convertible projects coming to Brighwells auction in March 2024
Obviously I was being cantankerous John with my comments, as it is a lovely ole bus that just needs some time spent on it..was it this one that you bid on then?..I somehow thought it was the other one (the red one)..Still think it was a cheap car even with the problems that it has highlighted by ou...

Re: Building the Worlds Fastest Jensen
I think you can rule out the Restomod Interceptors. The aero wouldn't be stable at 180. An FF on the other hand...

Re: TWO Int convertible projects coming to Brighwells auction in March 2024
I had a pop at the red one. I was top bidder with a cheeky bid briefly 20 seconds before the end! The price on that jumped up a lot in the last seconds.

Re: FF 078 project at CCA Auction
Hammer £18,000 John P Blimey, that's about what I paid for my car (FF) back in 2007 :!: (I did however spend a little extra having things restored) You rightlypaid good money as well back then Martin! In 2005 I didn't get that for a pristine looking good solid Vignale. This is surely consistent wit...

Re: Just seen this
Would somewhere like Thun in German speaking Switzerland have German plates ? No, In Thun the plates have a BE prefix, the Swiss flag, and a rampant 🐻 icon! My favourite plate for coolness is Canton Uri. It is also a very cool area to live! Also German speaking. Screenshot_20240320_113428_Google.jpg

Re: Best Version of Interceptor (Saloon) and Why?
I will add to dellboys comments, which I don't disagree with (edit -apart from the bit about convertibles). All FFs are good, the later having Girling brakes, cheaper, even better. Early Mk1 iinterceptor issue being the tried and tested but more complicated front suspension from the CV8. The later M...

Re: New member advice
If you haven't bought one yet, chances are you have patience to get the right car! Do you have a suitable garage for the car to park it in? If not great, plan buying a house or whatever and take a year to research and go to events. I would go to the International and go along to a few local meetings...

Re: FF 078 project at CCA Auction
The bonnet, wings and front panel are still there so that is a good start! It might be worth a trip over to the consigner to look at all the parts with it and have a chat.

Re: Rusty CV8 on Bring-A-Trailer (No Reserve)
The underside looked really good on the photos. Based on those it could be a good deal for someone.
