induction kit now also has a small metal bar with a ball on the end.
although at this stage i am not sure what this custom modification has to offer.
but it is rumoured to have amazing effects in achieving top speed in less time

What come's next? who care's, why worry about things over which you have no control. Freedom is a voyage of discovery with all the enjoyment of seeing things and experiencing events for the first time. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.

Right seeing as there's been no actual interest, PM me with what you'd want for her, as I'm interested in breaking her for parts and quite frankly the materials value is high at the moment.
Before you all have a go - yes, sometimes it is sad to see a nice one go, but there's been no definite moves to buy so I may as well keep the parts and scrap markets moving.
Sorry others but that's just the way it is.

Uh yeah but you said you wanted to sell mate, I'm offering to take her off your hands - I just mentioned my intentions so I didn't get a load of abuse for breaking her up.

A few k? Name your price tbh, I could lay my hands on a few p/x models if you want? I've got an ok-ish source of them. Let us know what you need as a replacement and I'll see if I've got anything knocking about.

S1 :Any chance of a test-drive? Does she smoke after being driven hard?
infairness she smokes pretty constantly at the moment, sure some kind of warranty seal has been broken or something.
and what do you have to offer in way of part ex grant, would need at least 2 items to have a deal there

Get me on msn mate, I've a few knocking about I could probably convince to be let go for a reasonable amount and I know you're a keen collector.
To be honest mate, it's not worth doing this one up so you may as well let me have her to break her. I'll let you have first shout on any parts but I'm not a charity.

TBH it seems a shame to break such a fine example, if Grant's not too set on selling the parts on (presumeably on the black market?) I'd be happy to make an offer... there must be a few miles left in the old girl yet...

You would think so with it being such a recent model but the last time I saw it I noticed some of the bodywork did not match. One of the socks had been replaced with a pattern part in the wrong colour and when started up from cold I heard a distinct grumble from under the hood.

The grumble's probably just air trapped in the system... should be an automatic pressure relief valve fitted somewhere in the lower section.

ahhh well! been thinking about it for a while now.....
I'll take her off ya hands, couldnt bear to see her broken.
btw, how often does she need 'servicing'? (i hope its loads!)
oh, and in relation to that, does she let you know when she needs servicing, or do you have to just do it anyways?

Just looking back through the thread and noticed this question...
From what I can tell the volume seems to be stuck on max, sadly the mute button also appears to be broken. Nothing that can't be fixed with a small piece of duct tape though.

Brother Crash :T3 DAVE :does the stereo still work can you still adjust the volume
