barrett Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I would really like to buy the grille off this, if the current or future owner wants to sell it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beko1987 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 If another white grille comes my way I'm sure I could swap them over, is there something about the grille then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sofarsogood Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 If another white grille comes my way I'm sure I could swap them over, is there something about the grille then?There is something about the whole car I think. Stylish like a giant Sinclair C5. beko1987 and Cleon-Fonte 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrett Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 The grille is off an early 'sinker' so doesn't have any chevrons on. I really like the clean debadged look on this car, and I've just bought a white Xantia and would like to unapologetically copy it on that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beko1987 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Aaah. Cant say I like it or hate it, so we could swap if you like in the future? I don't mind showing my chevrons with pride! No idea how it comes off though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moog Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Glad this is living on ..... Half expected it to end up as bean tins. Pump has been turned down a bit so if you want the full chompy experience you can turn it up. As mentioned, it really drove like a petrol car with it turned up.

vulgalour Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 That grille took some finding, I don't know who ended up with the original one it came with, or the roof bars that Ruff provided for the car. Moog, the pump got turned back up by Chompy when Bub brought it north, not as far as it was but certainly more than standard. From memory, the grille comes off with two push-peg things on the slam panel and either a clip or a screw at each end behind the indicator. There's a couple of slide pegs under the headlights too. It was quite easy to swap the grilles over, it's not an involved job, .5 spanner rating. beko1987 and The Moog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fetched it home and replaced tyre etc as if it hadn't gone this time I'd have just kept it. The Moog and beko1987 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to possibly undo your work vulg, but TBH the clean grill has always been one of the things I never quite understood about this, even back in the day! Was looking at Xantia badges for the boot lid last night in bed... If barret doesn't want the grille itll stay and be polished, but if itll provide more happiness to him, ill swap for a badged grill with no qualms! Itll only get covered in flies at 0710 on the m40 anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So should be pretty rapid then! Wasn't doubting you Bub, its great it is staying in the fold. eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
