haha I have noticed this, I'm still keeping an eye out for stuff daa'n saaff - but no luck, there are some pretty good ones up north. That black 360GLT is also a saloon with only 87k in MK.. sounds tempting to someone surely!

Hope something comes up soon... sounds like frustration!

I could be wrong but I think our latest member is the lady thats selling the black saloon in MK , Her user name here is shazaan2 and the lady on ebay is shazaan1 surely to much of a coincidence sm14 . LOL anyway I have spoken to Sandra by the miracle of email and discovered THE SUNROOF WORKS so dos the central locking, however only the drivers side leccy window works at the moment. If I can find five minutes to spare , I am hoping to go and see it in the next couple of days

I noticed last night, both your questions on that site and the newsest member! The car looks quite good really. Windows are normally easy to fix, as it's the motor that has probably gone wrong. A working sunroof! WOW sm66 Chris C and myself have working a sunroof each, how about anyone else? I'm tempted I must say, but................ :roll: how many more can I possibly have. BTW a 360 GLT saloon on an E, I've only seen one before!
