Thanks chaps - this one is mine and your are right it was on PH last year which is when I bought it and have spent quite a bit on it to sort a few bodywork and paint isues, trim, mechanics etc and its now in nice order.

I wish I wasn't selling it but domestic pressure is being brought to bear.

Kind regards

Hmmm. I've been having 2nd thoughts ever since I didn't buy that car - my 350 is great but that 4.6 engine... cloud9

It was the gears that put me off really - was it just the bushes or did it need a whole new box?

Enjoy the chimp!

Hi Chris - yes you are right, the gear change for 1st and 2nd was plain awful but thankfully it was simply that the bush had fallen apart - now replaced and the gearbox is really smooth.

I've never been so relieved when the garage advised the box itself was fine!!

Looks lovely. I think I like the 400 shell without a rear spoiler. don't see to many like that. What sort of power does that car push out do we think?

I think the previous owner thought in discussion with Tower View that it would be around the 300 bhp mark at the flywheel but I can't confirm.

Quite brisk anyway.
