  1. Hold off on this decision till the summer, and first refusal please! 😅
  2. Must have been facelift only, as im pretty sure the 1982 Sierra we had was TX key, but you may be right about the 1985 Sierra we had, got a feeling that was the newer type. Then again, facelift was 87........I know one had the square lights with the slatted grill, and the later one had the solid front with the wider lights.
  3. Just catching up on this, some great progress! As for the spare key front, it should just be a standard TX key for that era Ford. Most key cut places should still be able to do them👍
  4. Would love one of these myself, but reckon I'd get too much hassle from SWMBO about it, she was annoyed enough at the "old man car" S-type! With the key fob, have you tried to re-pair it to the car? Jag have some weird methods, I think in the S-type you had to turn the key from 0 to 2 in the ignition about 10 times whilst holding the brake, then press another button and it'd re-pair. In the X350s I have a funny feeling its something odd like holding a climate control button whilst flashing the headlights 10 times, or some other bizzare combo🤣 but it might do the trick!
  5. Not entirely sure if he is selling cars or taxidermy services... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225980856298?hash=item349d8237ea:g:S8oAAOSwZfVluI5t&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4PmY62gauXoCyHqyWUIOV55HGMo0l%2FrhAuVb2If55z9RPxp6IloeivqKI1YBd66%2Fk36qY53z4xR3128XLINmevWcLnq8tXgk3Dm%2BE0Ie6TRpVL7F0haGLQWK898BdmF9HoEp81LpLAWRlF5VNvcn1ANqjKHNrNkdZPy4Y9N%2FNBKt9GbQrUQAnJYI%2FYN%2FzdtyWCNAgCBP5oWCJ4s8SOEnrhZOAmlTLF13djxmFddDqXFUGjN183TfUjpdxCYwdFTocnCwF0gmGDPkrTAvJp%2BNBsUCdMkMWNWP6Ws2%2FM1TG9TG|tkp%3ABk9SR_ifmumsYw
  6. Sure thats not an ST24 rather than a V6 Ghia??? Also, whereabouts, if its local to you then its local to me😉

    Volvo 940 wagon

    Saw the thread title, then saw the usename. For a split second wondered if I have early onset dimentia and had bought a car and forgotten.....would explain the empty bank account🤣
  8. Looks like it also has the optional bodykit fitted? Those wheels were optional too.
  9. Let me guess, advertised as "runs great, no issues" then 5 lines later "needs accident repair"🙈
  10. Whats so scary about the DSG? As long as you arent getting and ealy 7spd and keep up with oil changes on the box (like you should with any auto) then it shouldn't be an issue. Trouble free on friends and family's cars over the last 10years across multiple cars and miles.
  11. @dcd1979 Hows the Fabia doing? Time for a 3 month update!
  12. ooo I know what it is! But I shall keep quiet😇
  13. Thats great news! Given the listing on Briskoda I was a little concerned it could end up being a bag of worms. thankfully it did what early 00's skodas do and just work.
  14. Great news!! So glad someone here saved it from mr scrap man😇. Just spotted you're only about 20 miles from me too, so may even get the chance to see it on the road when its working😉
  15. Has been posted over on the Skoda forum for a while now, but needs to be gone by the end of this week, seems a shame to just scrap it when it could be a decent project to get running again. Though it may be of interest to a few on here. Details in the link below. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/514902-skoda-fabia-mk1-14-petrol-2000-x-plate-sorn-off/?_fromLogout=1
