A few Pictures from the road trip - amazed how much interest it created, even the staff loading cars on the ferry had a good look.... Thumbs Up

2 snorkels are to get more air into the airbox , and reason its on trailer.....it passed UK MOT, but needed a IoM test...so we never taxed it...Not only that did'nt want to put miles on the clock...The test , new car tax and new IoM plates all done within a hour.... Putting Dreams on Drives at JLR Solihull..

Great looking 90 - Are there any more pics?

Where did you get the rear panoramic glass done? What size wheel / tyre do you have?

Thanks in advance ...

Stunning 90! (and 110 of course)

I have to agree with bpman, also being one of the 'never to enter public car parks, let alone a garage' brigade...
Sorry to ask, but what snorkel (s) is fitted to the G4?
Regards,
Alex

Glass was done by me.... www.IRBdevelopments.com - but supplied by www.LandyGlass.net (Dave happens to be a good mate of mine - and only lives a few mins from my workshop).

Wheels are 18" ZU alloys (meant for D4/RRS fitment) Tyres are (off the top of my head) 275 70 18's Cooper STT. These used to be available in the UK, but you may struggle now. However, I can still get them. The 18" wheels are needed to cover the IRB/Alcon 6 pot front brake conversion.

It fits in the owners garage... but then for some reason it it higher than the average garage.

Snorkels are again via me at www.IRBdevelopments.com
