I reckon I will be. I know he only paid £250 for it 4 years ago, when it was dent free and had done only 22K, so I'm hoping he'll be happy with a small profit

I'm getting more storage space in a couple of months, and should have a car-port from my garage the full length of my house so should be ok :oops:
I don't like leaving cars outside, does them no good at all!

Good work that man! Collecting is the way forward! Car ports are one of the best compromises when it comes to storage, as they keep the weather off as much as possible, but allow the air to flow! I'm not too happy at the moment as two of my important 300's are parked on grass, and I haven't had time to get some cavity rust protection on them yet. I really want to get a large dry unit with a good dehumidifier, but the cost is just too great. So, if I can wait long enough, I should be able to get an open fronted barn as storage sometime in the future.

That red saloon looks and sounds like a good one. It's amazing how many are still out there!

A good polish-up to get rid of the "pinky-ness" and that car would look fantastic! Wish my sills looked as good as those ...
