1986 N12 Cherry by MicraShedBought this from a member of the Autoshite forum and picked it up this week on the windiest day of the year. It has done the rounds recently, but the plan now is to keep and fix the bits that need doing before next spring. Low miles and receipts for the important jobs and very little rust. 1986 N12 Cherry by MicraShedDrives a treat and is currently keeping my K11 company. Jobs that need doing: Tailgate struts are dead - need replacing - currently Mk1 Broom Handle doing the job. Filler lock FUBAR and needs the wafers either filing flat or pulling - stands to reason the little lever by the side of the drivers seat doesnt work. Headlamp has ropey connection - sometimes it works, sometimes not. Small amount of rust on front valance. Radio, tape and fag lighter all dead - fuse OK, so suspect feed. Tailgate wash/wipe dead. Otherwise, its taxed, MOT'd and runs great.

It is quite a nice car, there really is very little wrong with it.
The plan is for it to be a project for my self and my 16 YO son who is currently studying motor mechanics at college. Next year with luck he can use it to learn to drive in (no PAS, that'll teach 'em!), in the meantime it will have the little bits tweaked, possibly have the bonnet blown over if it wont respond to T cut and a mop and take it to the Hoghton classic car show.
