Good to have another localish 300 owner.
I'm going to take a guess you being called Andy a owning a blue saloon that it's this one?

If you are the same bloke apparently i've met you as you know Ben Groom i.e Leatherhead Ben bmx'er?
I could be well off though

Nice, similar to mine (360 GLE saloon), although I can see yours is a GLT with the black trim, I'm 940 Turboing mine. Mostly stripped now fixing rust for another few months!
You can rebuild the rear bumper with 340 bits, metal bar and black rub strip are the same. Bumper mounts/brackets are different on the saloons.
