Thought some of you may be interested in seeing my newly purchased Cossie powered 290S. It has been subject to a full restoration around 6 years ago including new outriggers. Body is excellent with no crazing. Best of all it sounds awesome!

Needs a couple of tyres and a good clean and I should be away!

Hi
Nice,
You dont happen to be located in Renfrewshire near to where there will be a lot of house building going on & where the local garage owner has a Tuscan?

Like the wing mirrors. Nearly went for something similar on mine.

I appreciate we live a very long way apart but if ever we bump into each other I'd love to be taken for a drive just to see what a Cossie is like wink

I would be delighted to give give any interested parties a spin! I had a 350i a while back but this is a much better sorted car. As for my location, sounds about right although I'm not sure about the local garage owner having a Tuscan?

Thanks a lot for the positive comments. I am delighted with the car! Going to get it cleaned up and an oil and filter change. BTW, what oil would you recommend?
