I'm pretty sure RX8s are counted as 2.6 litres by the DVLA rather than 1.3.

Good job mine isn't the Lowline system then - my IPK screen is pretty much knackered! Interesting to see those price lists. I have the original bill of sale for mine - total price was £28,185.01. Curiously that includes £127.66 for power folding door mirrors which the car doesn't have.

Is it another Daewoo? The dealership comment makes me think it might be. Nexia / Espero?

Bloody hell that's cheap for a facelift diesel. One of my neighbours swears by these - he's on about his 5th. He reckons the 2-litre is a far better bet than the 2.2.

I had an estate on the same year - was supposed to be swapping it with Torsten for a Renault 12 but it got pikey'd when scrap prices were at their peak. It wasn't slow, but I certainly wouldn't have described it as "swift". Bloody good turning circle mind.

Don't see why it would be. £3.5K for a rolling resto Land Lobster doesn't seem ridiculously cheap. Plus most of their listings are photographed in the same spot - the scammers usually have photos taken on random driveways all around the country / world.

Didn't realise these late Magnums had such a funky dashboard.

What was the "Low Line" Nav then?

Every time I see this I marvel at how tiny the front discs are. To be fair I always thought the brakes were pretty decent on the two later 50s I had (the early one was on drums all round which were thunderously shit). Good luck with the fettling - sounds like the scuttle is going to be a pain in the arse, although probably more feasible than trying to remove and refit a Mercedes gearbox single-handedly.

It must be spring - just found this little chap in my front garden.

I bought a set of these a month or so back. They're not bad, as cheapo plastic trims go - they don't look nearly as offensive as some offerings.

Wouldn't want to use that in a strong breeze...
