Neil's car is probably the best condition saloon I've seen, that silver is way nicer than monza

Cheers guys and RIV ;0)

She is a tidy one. The interior I have to say looks the day it was out of the factory. Yes jay, as Mike says, black twin tone - basically black with hand painted silver on the face.

Into lepsons in May for a full refurb - shadow Chrome heavy on the silver - slightly less dark. I think the OEM silver wheels with the metalic silver body just looks, well too silver.

And at last some Assym 2's to go on those Conti sports once worn are pants...

Lift yourself in and out of the seat.

Exit and entry with the seat all the way back on the rail

This.

I personally never take the seat back on the rails, but odd as it sounds, using the steering wheel as a little leverage, left hand on top of the wheel I lift and step out by lifting vertically and out - getting in is the reverse... it's a matter of lowering in and out of the seat as opposed to sliding in. The right leg gets a work out...
