Bad dream?

Noahsark123 · Sep 12, 2019

Hi fellow landys
I managed to purchase my dream P38 on Saturday... two hours later on M4 ... 35MPH
AES prob! Bumpy ride home!
Not disheartened I checked all the advice given online...
thought best result place in local garage and do diagnostics... got call to say keeping victoria(name) in overnight! But seems ok?
Second chapter awaits! And the cost!

Suspension stayed high ...tested bags and lines for leaks, checked compressors and all valves, recalibrated suspension and reset!
Very pleased with garage and they complimented previous owner.
104k miles and taken care of. Sadly owner died and it was static for secen months hence issue.

Sounds like you found a good garage, a lot will not touch a p38 let alone have the diag to read them.

Noahsark123 · Sep 12, 2019

Very lucky indeed and minutes from my home. I love the P38 and always knew I would get one, had many toys and this girl will be pampered.
Thankyou

Here she is .

Welcome from me too

Looks nice, do like the green, but I have one that color too

As some have said sounds like you have found a good one and a friendly garage.

Oh make sure your piggy bank is large and fill it quickly

Enjoy it.

Noahsark123 · Sep 13, 2019

Thankyou,
Should be ok and expect the cost to get it to where I would like it... otherwise the kids are for sale!!

Noahsark123 · Sep 13, 2019

Can anyone advise why the car would not turn on with no electrics? Or power? I believe this was a previous prob that I dont want to encounter!
Should I replace the key fob battery now!
