Pick up my new to me 2004 4.4 V8 on Saturday. LCM repair already arranged with Merv at Autologic and a few smallish jobs lined up which I can sort.

I’m probably going to be in for will repairs as it had an advisory at the last MoT inner sills corroded. Not bad considering it’s done over 200,000 miles to only have one advisory.

What’s a ball park figure for cutting out and welding in new repair panels ? Would Stuart’s be what I need or are they outer only ?

Very new to anything L322 although currently have a rust free very nice L320 SC as well.

Cheers

Just an update here. We had some transport delay, so it's literally the slow boat from China now. They land at the end of July so by the time they are customs cleared, they will be available from very early August. 2017 4.4 SDV8 Autobiography in black

I’ll take a pair also!

If you need a deposit or anything let me know!

I would also be interested in a car set if there are any still available.

Please let me know how to place an order etc.

Many thanks, Stuart

+ 1 here as well when they are here ready thanks

Just an update for anyone waiting for these.

They were delayed a month in leaving China due to bad weather and the resultant congestion at the port. Then, for some reason, the boat diverted around the Cape of Good Hope instead of using the Suez Canal. It was due to dock today, but it's now the 6th. My shipping company seems very well-informed.

Anyway, the docs are in, and we're getting priority clearance, so I'm hopeful of having them available W/C 12th August. Pricing will be confirmed when I've seen the import duty and VAT bill.

I'll PM anyone on the topic here when I have them in hand. 2017 4.4 SDV8 Autobiography in black

Hi Stuart,

Thanks for the update, I've been following along.

After looking at my sills I'd like to put my name down for a pair also!
