NFC !
The salesman told me he might have to take it off eBay then it turns up cheaper elsewhere
I wonder what eBay will make of it

The latter of those 2 listings has been up for sale recently. At least twice. Maybe no bids ?

The photos were there earlier, but have now dissapeared

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it
...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Andy Graham is the Lotus Archivist and usually quite happy to confirm things like only 2 in that colour, particularly with another Narfuk guy.
Something on the ad made me laugh - "Further recent improvements include a head gasket replacement"

I'd call that a repair myself! I expect a car to have an effective head gasket.

Also with a new radiator that may have popped an end cap due to a head gasket failure.
