On a serious note Craig is she sitting on 20" or 21" wheels?

If 20" I would be interested assuming they clear my calipers.

As you say Craig it is an unusual but nice colour combination.
If all the wood trim is still available when I come down to pick mine up from you then maybe I could have a look at it as maybe replacing my piano black for it would be nice for a change.

Thanks

Good evening Craig - I don’t suppose the engine cover survived the lamp post did it ? Would be interested in that if still intact !
Cheers

Hugh

Car update! Finally made a free long weekend to change over engines and YAY! She's a running!
Friday after work started at 6PM and had the donor engine out by 11pm
Saturday started at 11AM and had wifeys front end completely removed and her engine out by 7PM
Sunday started again at 11AM and pressed the start button at 7PM...


Just needs MOT'ing and a very good clean after sitting for 5 1/2 months... Tax her ready for wifey to use from 1st next month Thumbs Up

Now finally waiting back in her parking bay at home…

Great result Craig.

Do you happen to still have the blue front door trim panels? I rather like them.

Edited, I’ve just noticed that’s your car, not the donor one. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue
Had- 2008 TDV8 Vogue SE in Java black
Had - 2007 S/C in Stornoway Grey

Good job there Craig, I've just gone through the same pain with my SDV8, couldn't get an engine so went the rebuild route, lets hope we both have better luck this time! L405 SV Autobiography LWB SDV8, finished in Aston Martin China Grey by ETO division.
