Thank you for your advice
I need to get the thing restored first
After it was hidden away
And it will only need a little bit of interior work

MWell this is the missing Rover R8 214si
It's kind of exciting getting it out of it's almost shallow grave and getting back into service

There’s not that much work there, I bet you are only around the £200 mark in labour plus the parts.
How much experience have u got and what would be the time frame

I’m a 20yr veteran on the r8, timescales is when I can fit the cars in but I don’t rush jobs through to just get them done, so if in a hurry, I’m not ya man. If you want everything done under one roof, that’s fully insured, I’ll let you know when there is a space.

This years work is all on the Facebook page so far.

I’m also the highest poster in this forum.

Which is good as I think I’m booked solid until then anyway...*laughs*

Got a 400 and an 800 coming in for welding and paint as well as a turbo engine build and then a turbo conversion on a 416. So yeah, fun times...*laughs*

Always the issue when you’re cheap...*laughs*
