Definately good for the money - I still think you should spend some time when this is on the road getting the 2.0 GLS fully sorted as that is a good car too!

I'll help if you want! I have a soft spot for the 2.0s

Look Very Nice James 8-) :y

 :question though do the rear doors have small pockets in the panels near the door handles in the lower part of the door or is it just my eyes playing tricks, more than likely just the way the trim goes.

Hope this makes sense

You're right Nixoro, mine has it too - although mines black leather - I'm guessing this is an elite or a leather thing that you get?

My Elite has rear door pockets. Don't think the MV6 does...

Finally got to look at this at home (work PC's are poo!).
That does look good, lot of work being done but at that price when it's all done, you'll have a cracker!

Weird thought I'd ask as the interior in mine doesn't have them. Interior from an N plate so I guess its dependant on year.

The early Elite rear doors were slightly different, they have a vent which blows air onto the window...

Cheers for the confirmation BoBo would be good if mine had them atleast then the kids would have somewhere to put the sweet wrappers instead of the floor. >:( ;D

Trouble is they fill them then start on the floor lol, shall just have to stop giving them sweets when in the car solves that problem ;D

Back to thread whats the outside bodywork like as if the interiors like that the outsides gotta be spotless too and hows the rebuild going? Very Nice :y

The rebuild is going really well...

Unfortunately... although I'm itching to get my hands under the bonnet again, I'm being forced against my will I have decided to spend a couple of days with her indoors my girlfriend,

But I'll do a couple of hours after work on Weds, Thurs... and a day at the weekend if I can blag it whilst keeping my special bits intact...  ;D
