I think now is the time to update our joint effort and dealing with the seized engine in general, and the car in particular-perhaps it should be the other way round. My partner in crime is my oldest son Richard. He got his taste for the P6 Rovers right from when he was able to drive around my...

Has anyone brought all of this to a satisfactory conclusion ? I recall an "unmolested and untouched" 6.3 engine. on a Ch.109 I was restoring. Now, this is original and gospel - No.2 and No. 5 (as viewed from the front) had four ring pistons, as opposed to the other six that had three ring...

Hasn't anyone else seen the pictorial collection of these cars - surely please. Two favourites of mine apart from some others - the 300SLMercedes Sports Car and that absolutely gorgeous yellow.................? Lancia - how delectable - come and take my GB !

Yeah Michel, don't worry - I saw that left rear wheel 5 feet up in the air and still blowing blue tyre smoke. That was enough for me, especially after I saw that cheesy grin when next you came down that long "Mulsanne" straight before you hit first gear to get around that corner again - Ladies...

I have always gone a simple, but effective step further when, to all intents and purposes, the Water Pump needs replacement. I remove the Radiator, plus the triangular water housing and water pump as one unit - just to get away from the Crank shaft pulley that makes it difficult to remove the...

Nah Patrick, Michel wanted to try my Gleaming Beauty as well on the day, but after I witnessed his futile attempts to destroy the Red Terror, I said thank you, but no thank you. He drove like Fangio and Mirling Stoss as one. Regards Styria

Patrick, many years ago I purchased an AMG spoiler/Air Dam from Silver Star Spares. In due course, I had a mould made up which I still have to this day. At that time, I had about ten units made up in Fibreglass, and sold them, painted if so required, for about $380.00 complete. Michel's Red...

Okay, Oversize or anyone outthere in the wonderful world of the multi tasked web - I am looking for a starter motor suitable for a 6.9 - can anyone help ? Mark, I have mentioned this to you before - are you the saint that can help me ? Surely there must be something in your collection that...

It is almost beyond description, but this thread first saw light of day more than ten years ago. I really can't add much more to this story. People probably don't realize just how nice the interior of the car is when compared with some 6.9s that have been advertised over the years. Regards...

BenzBoy, the web page you have brought up succinctly illustrates their beautiful array or selection of their wedding car fleet. Additionally, I have also spotted the open roof of the Sedanca de Ville style arrangement. Regards Styria

Well silly old me, I just spotted it as I was leaving my factory, and on the way home I stopped my car. Traffic was heavy and my attention was mainly drawn to the two tone colour scheme and the graceful lines. BenzBoy, there was mention of the Wedding Hire company on somewhere on the back of...

Actually, whilst it is a Sedanca De Ville style, I wonder if it would actually be functional. Regards Styria

I spotted this Bentley just around the corner from my premises. It's obviously a car used for ceremonial occasions such as weddings, divorces (?) - well, it doesn't really matter in the long run. I just loved the colour combination of the car and its elegant shape.

This is one I spotted parked in a Shopping Centre - by crickey, I'll be...it looks just so much like my GB. I couldn't help myself - the photo really shows this car in such a pleasant light. Anyone agree ? Regards Styria

Hi Bryce, how do you know all that ? None of this info I was able to obtain from the advertisement. I had thought that the car looked okay as such....Regards Styria

Now that is an agreeable motor car. In quite lopvely condition. Yes please ! Regards Styria

BenzBoy, I am with you. The interior is just not good enough - carpet that wears poorly and is probably stiff as a board, the front door boards have lost all foam, the back seat looks tired.........no, not for me. It is an old car, and looks an old car from an interior point of view. Regards...

More details to come. This is my way of Bookmarking the subject. Regards Styria

......................boys and girls, I'll stick to my frugal 6.9 that comes with the genuine helicopter noise - 24l./100 kms. Just kidding as it is more like 17 - honest!
