That is a lovely lovely looking car. The Walnut wheel and Auto knob really change the aesthetics of the interior.
Your cousin will be wafting to the church in style.

Latest addition to the car, or rather to the inside of it, thanks to ProfDave for the opportunity

Today at a small gathering of US and European cars close to where I live, my Dealer Launch sitting between this rather nice MGB GT V8 (one of approx. 25 units registered in France) and a 75th Anniversary edition MG F.

Latest addition, into the front armrest : genuine auxiliary 12V socket and Rover torch. Had to create my own loom for the aux socket, thanks to everyone who helped me. Now being a LHD I obviously had to mirror my brain, but all looks good...and the torch even works, can you believe that

Also fitted some RCA plugs for audio and video. Used an old Scart to RCA adapter which I stripped down, soldered to some RCA cable which then runs down from the armrest to the video module in the boot (which is now TV-in-motion enabled). Will allow for some iPod showing video on the monitor

Latest genuine piece of walnut : handbrake grip. The real stuff, not some Freelander one

What a lovely car you have, and I love what you have done to it.

Any future plans for her?
