    Default My wish list

    Now that some parts are becoming more scarce or even unobtainable I've been thinking about which bits I'd like. Some I will find, others may be nothing more than a wish:

    • One Vortex 18 inch wheel
    • A Navteq Europe disc - probably doesn't matter which year
    • The twin horn loom section - this is for the 75, already have the horn and the 260's done
    • A pair of powerfold mirrors with door looms
    • Another 260 with (or to be) supercharged
    • The LED type bulbs for the numberplate and sidelights
    Please drop me a PM if you can help

    What's on your list?

    Think my list is more of a to do list

    I would like to have the rest of the pieces for the dark oak dash, but NLA,
    Finish off my carbon dash, still work in progress
    Hurry my mate up machining my intake adapters for my custom Cold Air intake
    Have my wheels refurbished again (perhaps in a more durable colour)
    Fix my lower mesh next time bumper is off
    Visit body shop to have part of re bumper repaired after last bodged job where they never removed exhaust heat shields (before brooklands)
    Bonnet dents but not to noticable

    Think supercharger is on everyones list, but being realistic for myself house first hopefully very soon

    As for parts other than the other parts of the dash, i'm quite happy with my spares collection, front matching Mk2 starlight silver bumper, rear disks, full set of shocks, rear hand brake mechanisms, fuel tank module (bargin ebay), spare Apex, lots of little things that i can't remember.

    A full professional looking body kit to mirror XP500. No gaps everything fits to the button, 100% matching colour with wide shoes for effect. Would keep it starlight silver. If I could not get that then keep it as is (except for a black box above the engine) for a perfect Q-car.

    Wish list is simple - the XP500, if that's not possible I'll revert to my lottery tickets and 28 page project plan I'm working through for V8 CGE

    Project plan of course includes supercharger, VHS kit etc etc etc

    Andy's handling kit.

    Supercharger.

    And not forgetting Gordon Brown's personal credit card to fill the car up every time just to add to my grin factor every time I drive pass the London Low Emission Zone signs!

    Did I hear Brian say he has a body kit from ZT385 that he uses for molds?
    If we could find a front and rear bumper to mold also, It might be possible. I know where there is a ZT 385 spoiler thats got my name on it as is just waiting to be sent to Poland to be copied, I just need to find £100 to buy it and £30 P+P to Poland, I will then get the original back plus a free first copy and then JDL will be selling them.

    that would be good Tim, and would no doubt body kits would sell!
