Spiny Norman Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 As per title really, I believe I am now the sixth forum keeper of N425 HOY after Andy @cms206, @The Moog, @Bucketeer, @NorthernMonkey and @eddyramrodand since I got it with nothing more than a key and a green slip I was wondering if any of the previous custodians of this fine vehicle might have any of the service history, handbooks etc for it so I could keep them all together with the car. If anyone has. let me know. In fact of anyone has a handbook for an 850 they'd be willing to part with let me know also, too, please. Ta.

eddyramrod Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Not me, I'm afraid; I gave Andy everything I had for it. (Edit: here's my thread...) Spiny Norman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProgRocker Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I find baser 850s with wheel trims somewhat alluring. Spiny Norman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieInExile Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I have the other green 850 estate of multiple shiters, I'm afraid. You know you're on the right forum when there are two of these knocking around! mk2_craig, Spiny Norman, eddyramrod and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2_craig Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Can't help with handbooks etc, but did come across the optional boot mounted 6 CD changer fitted in 850 estates ( I can't remember which car this came from ) while hunting for other stuff in my garage - haven't tested it yet but its available if anybody is after one?

The Moog Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Nope I think I left it all in the car. It did have quite some paperwork as was own by a vicar before bucketeer purchased it He then used it as mobile campervan for a bit, before one night accidentally locking himself out when he went for a midnight wee. In only his grundies and in the middle of the forest, he had to find slightly larger rocks before he could break back in! There probably is still some glass in one of the doors mitsisigma01, Dan_ZTT, Spiny Norman and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdly enough the CD autochanger works perfectly despite looking like it wouldn't. I took it in to get the exhaust seen to the other day and they welded a wee patch on the silencer which tamed the boom but hasn't eradicated it completely. Next week I'm taking it in to get the tracking sorted because it feels like one wheel's going to the shops while the other one's coming back with the change. Been on Paisley/Glasgow roads far too long I reckon. mk2_craig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
