Just taken out a policy with Performance Direct, after doing a search on Confused.Com. I'm 43 and the S3 is a 2 1/4 petrol 88", no convictions or claims. Total cost with out legal cover £85:) , well happy with that. Mind you on the Confused site £85 was the cheapest quote, but the quotes went up...

My first Landy was a 1957 S1 Hardtop, I had it when I was 17. Paid £850 for it and that was after it had had a full rebuild:eek:

Naw't wrong with that colour :D:D:D

I seem to have got it everywhere including all the floors and foot wells ! ! !:rolleyes:

I've never had any problems with remoulds and because they are normally made with a softer compound the grip levels are normally better, but they do wear quicker.

:doh::doh::doh::doh::D

I would always go for the series every time, a series is for life ! ! ! you'll be able to rebuild it time and time again.

I have been thinking about fitting a 12v inline Bilge blower between the wing vent and heater unit on my series 3 to increase the screen clearing capabilities. Has anyone else fitted one or any ideas would be welcome ? Bilge Blower 12v Marine 4" In-Line Exhaust RULE 240 on eBay (end time...
