its got Mk2 door panels at least from that shot. A mk1 door doesnt have the pastic bit with the electric window switches and speaker pod in it.

Its probably had a Mk2 interior swop over as the Mk1 "R" spec seats disintrigrated.

Even so, GOOD SAVE! 8)

I won't! We will be blocking a road while we load up though, so can't promise many pics of that - will get plenty once it's landed back here though.

Indeed. I'm very excited. Will be collecting the trailer this afternoon, then waking up the neighbours horribly early tomorrow as me and Mat head off to Bristol.

Sort of praying that it will just fire up after three years. It should do but life will be much, much more difficult if it doesn't. It's very tight to get it out. Is resting on blocks though, so at least there is room to get a jack underneath if required.

The accident damage is still causing some concern. Hopefully MOT men don't mind a heavily curved sill as my plan is to get it back on the road as cheaply and quickly as possible - THEN start on the cosmetics. The cheaply bit stems from the fact that I'm skint mainly! Anyone want a really very nice Saab 9000?
