Does anyone know of any concealed hinge bonnets available for sale in good condition?
You shouldn't have an issue getting a later type bonnet. Try eBay user '61572tim' - Tim he has lots of decent range rover classic spares.

Cheers, Steve

I've got one sitting about that I just bought for the sound deadening.

I've not looked at it for a while but I recall it being perfectly solid.

If you could check I'd appreciate it... The one on my LSE is shot, and has already been repaired at least once before.

The previous suggestion will have one it seems, but is in North Yorks, so if I can save that journey all the better! biggrin

Morning Jon. Did you get the email last night? Let me know as I can bring one of the bonnets back this afternoon.

Decided that I am definitely selling mine, being on holiday and worrying about it parked outside the house tells me it's become too 'precious' to really enjoy.

1982 4 door auto with the 'b' pack from the factory. Lightly restored three years ago so structurally perfect, looking lovely inside and out and driving wonderfully. Replacement engine though.

What do you guys think I should be looking for price-wise?

Less than the average new Golf, and you wouldn't sweat about that sat outside the house, so personally my advice would be to relax on your holiday, and continue to enjoy the RR when you get back. smile

Disklok/Stoplock Pro - if it gets nicked then, they would have taken it whatever.

I would think the real concern in London is touch parking and side swiping. It's amazing how cars can be aged on some roads by not just people passing through but cretinous neighbours who should know better. Nowhere seems immune from the horror.

If it's NOS then I'd place it on eBay and carandclassic specifying the years it was in use and stick a £3+K tag on it and wait until someone doing a big resto needs it?
