Is the "P" registration one from Norwich as there was one for sale near me a couple of weeks ago? Very late registration for an E34. Looks a nice old thing. Montreal Blue?
Yes mate,

At the forecourt near GSF Norwich just off the roundabout,

Yep Montreal blue, aircon, Second to last month of production and late registered, Service book and low miles FSH, just the SLS that has been bypassed but hey-ho its a job I wont need to do,

Just needs some Leather which i'm hoping to pick up next week!

The Calypso car is up for sale if you know anyone who is looking...

The one I saw was with the Number One Motor Company but thats quite a way from GSF. Don't know if its the same car but that was a P plate with 96K iirc.

I was quite tempted by it for a Photography wagon for my wife but she would only consider an auto :(

Montreal Blue is rare for an E34, more of an E36 colour.

Very same one! Thought GSF was just round the corner and down the hill but its been a while since i've driven round the area,

The only issue that it has is a shimmy at 65-70 which may be suspension or steering box or (hopefully) just tyre balancing,

Well worth investing in as a keeper i thought! :D

As am I, As soon as the Calypso bus is finished the new addition will be getting Saville'd within an inch of its life!

May well stick the Alpinas on...
