WOW! what a busy chap!

That is looking really worthwhile. What about the back of the rear seat - has it survived?

And the front parcel shelf how many parts did it come out in? ( :lol: )

Yeah the back of the rear seat is fine. My living room is too small to have it on the floor and still get in and out. It's out of picture on the LH Side (on the clothes horse :shock: )

Looks like a good place for a carport there!........There are these mobile garages in our local cash and carry.. Good bit of kit, and you can walk round the car as well with them.

Yeah, sorry Alan.

The parcel shelf did come out in one piece (just). The thin piece that goes to the left of the steering wheel is ripped but still holds together.

I've read that these fall to pieces quite easily.

Will take a couple of photos in the daylight and whack 'em up on here so you can judge for yourself
