Lovely car, I hope you get it all sorted.
For readers of this thread this perhaps highlights the benefit of an independent pre purchase inspection. When I bought my 2008 SC in Southampton a local ... |

At the time I got mine inspected by a local specialist Indy; one hour labour (£65) and a verbal debrief. Expect to pay maybe £300 if you want a written report you can rely on legally. I did have to ... |

I inspected a RR for a friend where the garage “fixed it” six months before for the (now) vendor and it was rotten again. If you go down the fix it road then at the least ask for wip photos of rot ... |

Lots of threads on here about preventative maintenance on the rear wheel arches /sill ends: Freelander trim fitting, wax injection etc.
Ps just noted your location; maybe not an issue 😁 |

I’m with admiral and had the front screen done a few months ago by Autoglass. Asked for Pilkington and no problem other than a six week delay while they sourced one. 2008 s/c. |

If viewing worth a close look at the rear arches /sill ends; rear quarter photo seems to show quite a rusty arch? Might just be the photo. |

Another vote for Autoglass. Two very experienced fitters did a very good job on mine last Friday, taking 90 minutes. Very careful to ensure car not marked, screen properly placed etc. New A pillar cov ... |

If buying maybe take it to your known local body shop. I inspected one for a mate where the seller had a prepurchase paint job that was very badly done and then it re-emerged far worse later as a resu ... |

I went through the same process and sourced 2nd hand gills. I settled for an aftermarket repro grill; plenty available and looked spot on when fitted. |

Haven’t tried it myself but would rodding them with strimmer flex clear out the blockage? That was my plan when I tested mine for blockage (they were clear). |

There was a thread (not sure where) where the owner found a donor car in the scrappers and cut out the arch and sill ends in one big piece. An option if you can find a non rusty donor. |

When you say no light board is it the case you have the socket plugged in but there are no lights for the socket to “talk to”. If so then that seems intuitive and it is just saying lights aren’t ... |
