Long time, no news!
We've been really busy with customer cars and project work. This stunning customer project car has just been completed and we are really proud of it!
We were tasked with recommissioning this Arden Green 75 V6 Connie SE after it was laid up by the previous owner with a very poorly engine.(not surprising really as the car has covered over 203k miles!). The spec of the car is amazing, we think it has every possible option fitted from the factory, and was owned by the same family (two brothers), from new until our customer bought it two years ago.
We were tasked with sourcing and fitting a replacement engine and to do any remedial work required to obtain an advisory free MoT test. We located a very healthy 86k mile engine and then carried out a full cambelt service on it along with new gaskets, plugs and fluids. We then went through the rest of the car with a fine tooth-comb and tackled any issues that needed attention. The main culprits were a couple of coil springs, a leaky exhaust, and a couple of electrical gremlins that were traced to a bad earth.
Our customer has decided to sell the car on now that it is finished, so we asked John from Clean Inc. mobile valet and detailing to come and perform his magic and ready the car for sale. As usual, the result was very impressive!
