Hi from North Wales, UK

Hi, I'm Steve and have owned a X reg 3.0 S-Type SE Auto for a little over a month. It was a one owner full service history car in Carnival Red. I am so pleased I took the plunge, wanted one for years but never could afford it and as a major bonus even the wife and kids like it.

Must be me as well, as I read it as an X type, but my excuse is senility.

PS I spent a day with Roger taking more bits off his spare 'S' type and photographing some of the unusual connections, ie to release the 'Veneered' dash board bit and the sides to the rear seats. But more important for me how to remove the cloth covered bits up the side of the windscreen!!!

A gutted car is a revelation, maybe why I like scrapyards and their prices!
