Thanks
Dont need one at the moment and fingers crossed I never will, but parts for these cars get scarcer by the day. Do you have the part number, price etc.

Len,
I would love to, but my S Class has all the gadgets I could ever want now! plus I have a couple of Corsairs for the Sunday summer days!
Scorpios were fun while they lasted (almost 10 years of ownership) and I owned about 8 in total over the years, all facelift Cosworths!
