Re: BDC 24

Hi Bob, I echo Simon's sentiments. Take care, and good luck ! Matthew, Surely that can't be the same Plus 8 I sold you all those years ago? Had I known you were going to neglect it, perhaps I should have kept it !!! Good luck with the Crossle, and look forward to you being out again in a Morgan next...

Re: John Peel 4 seater +8 for sale

Interesting !
We recently "built" at NEW ELMS a 1985 Plus 8 3.5i 4 seater in Ferrari Giallo Fly yellow, for a customer in SW France, based on a new galvanised chassis and VSM Steve Barnes body. The original 2 seater donor car had been written off in 1990.

Sorry Bob / Simon,

I missed the word "winning" ! Should have gone to Spec Savers !!

Yes, he still hobbles a bit as a result of the Goodwood incident.

Best wishes,

Re: 6" wire wheels

Hi Jim,

I'm sure Richard's blue ones will look perfect on your light blue 4/4, but if you prefer silver or black I have a choice of "new old stock" wheels at bargain prices.
Give me a call at the New Elms workshop.

Best regards, Tim Ayres.

Re: A Bit of History.

I reckon it was all caused by that bloke in the Sierra, out for a Sunday afternoon drive, spotted a bit of Armco and thought: " That's a nice grassy bit of central reservation - perfect place to have our picnic!" On second thoughts Mary, perhaps you saw a photo opportunity to get your car ...
