Unlike the other SD1 I had a couple of years ago, this one is a NAS model and is totally stock.. hence the slightly cross-eyed front end and the correct wheels. It&#8217;s also been oddly resprayed in its original colour of Platinum (oh really, British Leyland?), but fortunately still has the original awesome two-tone brown velour interior.<\/p>\n<p>It had the usual electrical gremlins, which required a bunch of relays, a Jaguar XJ6 fuel pump, and lots of swearing. It now drives and stops when it&#8217;s supposed to, and doesn&#8217;t seem over-inclined to catching fire.\u00a0 So far, it&#8217;s only moved around the driveway and back, but as it&#8217;s got a bizarre custom exhaust system it sounds a bit.. well.. frisky.<\/p>\n<p>It also doesn&#8217;t seem to overheat.
