I went and saw this sl a few weeks ago was interested in buying it until I found out it had no service book or records of any history, plus the carbon was all scuffed up. Guess it's not for sale anymore then

I asked to see the history and was told it had no service book, no answer to what happened to it. Seller told me he presumed the owner lost it as he had a large collection... He said he serviced it but didn't show my the work sheet, and no documentation for any service work over the years from owner such as an invoice. Which leads me to only conclude it has none, ofcourse I could be wrong but without proof what's the use

Please tell me the front end is going to end up as a desk, or a kid's bed or something? Crime if not.

Heard about the pacification programme.... But if a test mule engine makes it to production and than blows, what's a rush job untested one gunna do... Happens with drugs all the time.... Suggest a fire alarm for all

What's happened there though? Did they cut the occupants out then it set on fire? Where's all the rear rollover protection at that back? There should be a lot of bulkhead surely?

It doesn't look right to me.

Saw this going the other way (couldn't really make out much without slowing mind). Bad luck frown
