That’s where my car came from, the previous owner was a professional gambler called Sam Tricket who had his new SVR sent to them for customising, when he collected it he left my car to be sold on. He wasn’t bothered about it and just told them to get rid of it. Must be nice to have that much cash... 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)

Might have to take up gambling if that's the lifestyle you get

@Brit Plumber - do you have a build thread covering the work you've done on yours? Looks very interesting!


In other news, i've just confirmed it definitely isn't an AB.
The original owner has just sent me some pictures of it when they owned it Totally standard HSE.

It's had the Full AB kit, wheels and interior done by Auto Lab by the looks of it.

No build threads really as I never know if it’s going to work ‘till I’ve tried it. The surround cameras are going well, I’ve got 4 cameras plugged in and working, just one more to sort out a connector for. The RRS 2 mirrors are working but I need to work out how to do the blind spot warning and auto dimming. The wirings in upto the body for the Wading sensors but need a module and figure out how to put software into the FCDIM (or find a Dual View FCDIM with it already in). Dual view screen is finished and fully functional but need to fit the IR sensor and loom to the amp to use the headphones (the looms £100 but I’ll probably make it my self).

Did have an odd issue yesterday after fitting new mirror glass to the left mirror, the mirror wouldn’t fold on locking but would on double lock but them the alarm would go off. Traced it to the heated mirror connections. When I fitted the correct wire to the correct spade, all was well. Done it dozens of times correctly without ever realising it mattered! 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)

I'd be interested in doing the surround cameras, I also need a diagram for the wiring for the Auto High Beam so I can work out what i'm missing. 2016 Black SDV8 Autobiography

Expect lots of PMs from me in future

You should really do a build thread with all the things you've done, would make great reading for a lot of owners (well, it would for me anyway )
