I had similar issues with my 75 Connoisseur spent a small fortune on it over the past three years and last year just after her MOT Test was told both sills would need replacing at an estimated cost of £1000+ so I started looking around too, ended up with a beautiful Jaguar XF, which was the only car I could see as a near replacement, still lots of wood and chrome, cream leather interior too, she’s lovely. I still have my 75 on a SORN and don’t know whether to save up and fix her as a car to keep or let her go. She’s a 2.0 Ltr Diesel in great overall condition apart from the sills, new exhaust, new tyres, windows recently Diamond Polished too, she my Golden Beauty. Such a shame to have her sitting doing nothing but that final shock just pushed me over the edge...for now.
