Guest Removalist Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 Hi all, I'm Steve from Borehamwood and I've owned a Galaxy for 12 years. It's been sorn for the past 2 years due to my wife having a company leased car, but the lease car goes back in June so the Galaxy has to come out of mothballs. I took it for an MOT last week and it failed big time (garage say's about Quote

Smilge Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 Hi Steve ...... A Jenson Healey hey? ..... wow you dont see many of them around these days. Just a quick welcome from me mate and hope you get the Gal sorted. Rear shocks shouldnt be much of a problem mate .... anyway, loadsa good people on here who will be more than willing to point you in the right direction. Chris Quote
Guest Removalist Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 Thanks everyone, just as I expected like the Jensen owners club forum, people willing to help out.Rear shocks don't look too hard as you say but I've been told the front are a bit of a pig.For anyone that doesn't know, Jensen Healey is the small lotus engined sports car (couldn't afford to run the big Intercepters).What do you think of the Galaxy CD's available on ebay? Steve. Quote
