What colour is it Dave?

The one easily solvable (for a given value of easy) rust issue on mine is the passenger side front door, which has a bubble in the middle of it.

Mine's mini-facelfit Elite 98/99 "Diamond Black"    (metallic black) ... what are the chances of a match?

Sorry Max, both mine are green.

OK....

I have now taken ownership of a 98 3.0 Elite saloon (mini facelift) that I am also going to strip. Once I have finished this one that is!
Please note though, Bose is taken, as is air intake pipe TheBoy wants and centre arm rest.

Please, if you want parts, PM me with your requests. :)

Cams are now provisionally sold to ClarCE.

I will catalogue and list everything by Saturday (lot of bits!).  ::)
