1987/ D Plate Crystal Blue 2.8 Injection Special

I brought my Crystal Blue 2.8 Injection Special (my 4th 2.8i!) at the tail end of last summer and have been accumulating bits and bobs over since then to improve it where possible and have got round to pulling it out of the garage and get it up and running as not been on the road since 2006. Have cr...

Re: WANTED Good MK3 Bonnet in Kent maybe essex/surrey

Andy,

Pop over to Pheasants at Bobbing; there is a Silver Laser in there with a very good boneet (front end is non crusty!) aside from a little bleb on the drivers side corner. They want £50 for it. If i hadn't have bought another rust free bonnet off of martinmk2 i'd have had it.

Pics of them fitted on my old...

Plans are to strip her down and do a full repaint to standard spec, refurb the pepperpots, get new bumpers and end caps, get some repro dealer stickers, plates and tax disc holder, clean the trim with a fine tooth comb and refit the standard ERST32P radio it came...
