Mad price.....
No-one has bit my hand off for one with 40 K miles at £30 K
So back into storage it goes for another winter.
Where did you advertise that, I have been looking for the right LC for sometime and have just bought one. If I had seen one for sale at £30k with 40k miles I would have ripped your arm off...No-one has bit my hand off for one with 40 K miles at £30 K

Mines a bit difficult to sell due to it's previous history - and the fact I've owned it and I don't treat it like a show and shine car
Previous History - well this should cover it

Yes I bought it about three weeks ago, just having some powder coating done on the rear sub-frame, drive shafts and other bits, will pick it up mid November.
That's a proper arse job
Make sure you mark the left and right "Tie rods" - they are frequently different lengths and a cow to fit even when they are fitted on the correct side

Not advertising it anywhere - car club I'm in knows it's for sale - anyone serious in hunting for one would be advised to buy a "known" car

Good to see a car used as it was designed to be rather than a hidden away car who's owner is greedy for appreciation only. Mines a bit difficult to sell due to it's previous history - and the fact I've owned it and I don't treat it like a show and shine car

Oh and get new bearings first before you get the arms done

Mine should be coming in very much the same condition as yours is, that's why im having to wait for the work and re-build to be completed.
I'm not sure anything is left to do on mine - Oh apart from paint - I really dislike getting cars painted as it does nothing for the car but it's what everyone looks at - if you are buying an LC the last thing you should be looking at is paint!!!!Welshbeef said:

It gets maintained well too - very frustrating car sometimes - I've had it 16 years and still have a love hate relationship with it
When it's good - it's very very good - when it's bad........ well it's very bad
R&E Hendersons(Chic Henderson) has had this car probably since the early to mid nineties. It has spent much of its life in his showroom with other collectable cars. It does (used to) get used, but not often. If I remember right one of his sons put it or another one into a field without using the gate.

I guess he figures it puts the 'Wot's your best price mate' brigade off asking him if it's for sale every few days!
