just forgot to mention that the engine is completely kanckered as it has lost its oil through the water expansion major head gasket failure so the engine will be disposed of but some parts will be salvaged off it

the car is a hatchback in silver

Can you post up some pics of the interior?? Namely the front seats........I will put the picture on the LDV Sherpa forum as some like comfy front seats.......handy if they are grey too :D

How much for all the switches bud?? Talking about the push ones, like fog lamp switch, rear screen demister and hazard light?? £3 sound fair? £1 a switch?

i can post some pic of the front seats at the weekend when i have got some pics of them but i do know they are in grey with a pattern portion of the seat not the side bolsters and the drivers seat does have a small cigarette burn in them where somebody has dropped a cigarette between there legs while it has been lit.

You are welcome to rear seats Shafz.....I doubt the guys will want rear seats only to upgrade to comfy fronts if they are local.

i see alot of you guys say the rover 400 seats are comfy. i had a rover 416 98 plate and i must say there a lot more comfy than the zs seats. i wish they had used them and covered them the way they have with the seats that are in the zs

the slave cylinder seemed to be ok but as i have not been able to drive the car because of major head gasket failure.

it did seem ok when i had to put in first gear and crank the engine over to get it on the trailer.

I know it's a small part, but seeing as i broke the spring that holds in the passenger side headlight bulb.... :blush: what are the chances of having that?

Assuming it's easy to get out of course and the same as the ZS. :) If it's not then don't go to any hassle.

i do have a downpipe but it is not the same as the one that is in your pic

the downpipe that has been fitted to this car is a twin pipe from the manifold to a collecter pipe to make it to a single and it is the same as the one they fit to the rover 214si aswell

sorry
