Title: ex Museum Elford Turbo
Post by: CHC (RIP) on March 22, 2014, 11:29:22 PM
Heard of a 1 owner Elford Turbo being sold by a museum with minimal mileage too.
Not wanting to miss out an such an opportunity thought I have a look and boy oh boy was I glad I did

I was actually having my white rx serviced and motd and a little cosmetic bodywork to be done but the cost including spraying got me thinking :Hammer.  I knew of this up for grabs so offset the costs and bit the bullet. I\'d already sorted a deal for my other 2 rx\'s so it was a done deal - home she came.
It is to be driven - to shows, meets etc and perhaps a weekend or two away so hopefully you\'ll see her around.
:cheers

It needed a few small jobs to put her right but as close to a new/fresh from the production line as anybody could wish for

You are going to have to be OCD with the car products to keep it in pristine condition:)

Yeah I\'ll want to keep on top of it for sure Grant but it\'ll be worthy of the effort
