  1. Cheers @catsinthewelder that looks epic! I think im ok with dates, just got to choose what to take (most likely impossible that far ahead given my proclivities) but i feel a rolls road trip would appeal to me.
  2. A bit more of the bitsa interior. Upside- it’s semi trashed so very usable. (OSR door card- partially eaten by a dog?) Dog guard secured by a ww2 soviet machine gun sling The headlining is just the backing only, as it the internal a b c d pillar trim- The NSR 1/4 window still has the breakers yard markings on it for extra couldnt give a fuck points. Actually this glass is more tinted, and is optikool rather than the other side windows being triplex- so off a later model i think. Farthest off road so far Verdict- must try harder
  3. That turns the electrics off, isolates the battery (almost like on a track car) not sure if i like it or not, apparently there was a parasitic battery drain and this was their solution, back when it was basically a meat and 2 veg tow truck with half the interior gutted.
  4. Just to add some jeopardy its on air suspension still 😆
  5. Ive got to say i just dismissed the p38 as junk but basically its nicer to drive, less rot prone and WAY cheaper than a classic, and also more unusual than an L322. As those age they are throwing up their own issues (weirdly they seem more rot prone than a p38)
  6. P38 still going well, Quite a relaxed drive- not fast but it makes you relax and waft. It came with a George Michael cd in the player. Didnt he crash one into some parked cars at some point? Anyway I decided to slap a plate I had on it to add to the old money vibe….
  7. Shitefest 24? (iirc @catsinthewelder had an outline of a plan but @twosmoke300 also had a backup idea?)
  8. Lovely! Lives not far from me, I think.
  9. This just came up on one of my colleagues “1 year ago today” I promise i didnt crash!
  10. Great progress ! Plus great newsprint, which as someone else has said, IIRC , shows how far the sierra has come value wise.
  11. Glad to hear you are still persevering! I sold mine as i was close several times to having a huge crash on local temptingly curvy but greasy devon b roads. Id like to say its because of the tyre choice but basically its because im a hamfisted idiot.
  12. P38 now has full oem rear underlay/ carpeting fitted . The underlay is rubber/ foam backed and has made quite a difference to the interior noise levels. I went for a walk along a disused railway with a misbehaving beagle and got a picture of the p38, and its reputation. Which on the basis of my experience so far, is unfounded.

    AI worded ads

    I often feel most w124 ads are quite generic with various tick box remarks. but nevertheless….

    AI worded ads

    Hi, apologies if we have had this, but im noticing more and more AI worded ads. Nothing specific but a load of generic waffle that says nothing that a potential buyer would find of value. Why? I get that if you want specifics, send a e mail, but a more specific ad could answer some of those questions. Maybe its an example of seller apathy in the face of timewasters, and is effective in weeding them out? Which appeals more? Its hard to say!
  15. Also had been meaning to take a pic of this… Because patina
  16. Shad news…. Been gifted use of a garage By my Boss, which is nice!
  17. Shad slightly longer but quite a bit narrower
  18. Works car park: Differing mobile lifestyle statements?
