Driver side wing for sale

Just found under a pile of BMW stuff, driver's side front wing (red) in almost perfect condition. No rust anywhere - any use to anyone? I'm based in NI, so you need to factor in cost of getting it to you.

Please give me a message or a call - 07878 175690...

Re: Can anyone help? Need copy of cert of compliance

nova was the first thing I did, & all went through ok. Sent a copy of that off with the application along with pics of the car, SORN application & anything else I could think of - it cost me £6.10 in postage!

Re: Can anyone help? Need copy of cert of compliance

Thanks for the info, Volvo have been in touch saying that they did not produce CoC until 1995, so I'm off the hook with DVLA!

Re: Wet seatbelt,in a non sunroof car, any suggestions??

Yes, but the list has increased now to 4 Exxys, and the latest addition to the stable is a 1967 Honda S800 (798cc, 4 carbs & 100MPH potential). Made a promise not to touch her until the other cars are all fettled!
