Every seal (door seals, window seals, hood and windscreen seals) has been replaced just after we bought the car.

Painted wire wheels, tonneau cover (this is a must have item when owning a british classic car, it allows to park without raising the hood when leaving the car as it will protect the interior from moderate rain and hide the interior to everyone, but most important : it protects from burning sun),
