    Not sure if the mirrors are electric still, ill look at the power window controls after, they look manual like in my other vl.

    There's another button im going to try, not sure what it does yet.. its raining atm, and the cars are nice and dry with the weather covers on

    Wow this car was a bargin, just bits of surface rust in the boot, which isnt much, only a light scrub will get rid of it

    Just started on the springs, remove the lows and replacing them with new ones,, god low cars a pain to jack up!





    Should be level with the other VL when the jobs done, ill post a finshed pic in the next day or so.

    ps. The bikes r Honda XR 450 & CR 250
