Thanks.
More info?
Year: 1996.
Bought it about 6 years ago.
The rear garnish had a crack and had rusted the boot lid. So through work I replaced the boot, lights and garnish. Only series III stuff was still available new from Preston motors so that's why the rear is chrome. At the same time I had the boot lip put on, polished the rest and fitted new pinstripes.
Couldn't leave it at that so I bought a new series III front bumper and fitted fog lights. I actually have another brand new series III front bar at home because they said it was the last. Lol. Figured, just in case.
Haven't done anything to the engine yet. All standard.
But have another engine at home to do up for the future.

I don't actually know how to attach any more images?

Very nice, and yes more info, anything you want, mods you want to do, ones you do, maintenance eg: tips, products you recommend or don't . Some interior photos, yea photobucket ,much better and easier once you've sus'd it out. I found the thumbnails very restrictive in the size of the photos you could load

Oops, I did something wrong there. Posted a msg before those last images.

No sunroof, sadly. I'll have interior pics on weekend as currently have taken it out. I one day want to get a RE spray. Same color, panther mica black cause I love the green tinge in it. Have had a 2.5" exhaust fitted, and the bonnet scoops done couple years back. I want to buy a spare bonnet for the day I go back to normal. The senator wheels I'm having an internal debate on. I like 'em but they need a clean up. Or I want something chunky like internationals to replace them. Other than the eventual rebuilt engine in the shed I'm pretty happy with her. I bought a grange recently so as to keep the VS as my weekender.
