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

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*
