The 'Geoff Buys Cars' 480 has been saved!
Evening all,
As some of you will know, in May 2021, a YouTuber going by the name of 'Geoff Buys Cars' bought a 1992 ES Limited Edition which he named 'Khujo'. The car was subsequently won for £10 in a raffle, but unfortunately the water pump seized when the winner was driving home. The last I heard of the car it was being kept at a scrap yard and was going to be stripped for parts. Apparently a farmer ended up purchasing the car and it sat in a field ever since. The car has now been purchased from the farmer by a young lad with the intention to save it.

Spotted that last night. Have already offered to look at the dashboard for him.

Really good to have you onboard. Was fuming when I discovered the tale of what happened to khujo, especially as it was preventable - hence the offer of a dash overhaul!

Might have to take you up on that offer it came with another gauge cluster which i might try out, still trying to get the car clean before I start diving in to it as it was absolutely minging from being sat in that field loads of mold, moss, brambles
wrapped around the engine etc getting there now. ![Hopping Happily :hopping:](./images/smilies/hopping.gif)
